Tried Too Much

She didn't know she was beautiful

She didn't know she was wonderful

She tried to maker herself perfect

She thought he'd come back then

All alone she felt at night

She wished he had been by her side

She starved and cut and felt the need

To earn perfection out of greed

She thought he'd come back

She thought that he'd care

She thought he'd be at the funeral

But he never showed up there

She tried to fix herself too much

She strived to be fake

She tried to change herself to much

She died of what she thought was fate
