White pearls, silk gloves
Lace dresses and diamonds
She lives the life of a beauty queen
But she's not happy
She's heartbroken
Melancholy and jaded
She floated through life with a mask
Of fake smiles and hollow laughter
She sleeps and she dreams of him
Crying quietly, she awakes
She's protective of herself now
Poor beauty queen
Went and got her heart broken
Now she's left to talk to her
Fancy magazines and glamorous makeup
She's drifted from her model friends
She now see through their smiles
Beauty queen, Beauty queen
What do you see in that mirror?
Is it that insecure, little girl I do?
Or is it something worse?
Marble floors and glass doors
She's all alone now
Nothing but money to comfort her
She hates herself and her money
Every night she breaks down
In the solitude of her room
Red wine and champagne
She drinks her pain away
Poor spoiled beauty queen
Marlboro lights and cocaine
She can get it all
Just to forget him
But it never works
Poor beauty queen
See what love does?
She can't breathe without thinking of him
She can't do much of anything now
Poor broken beauty queen
She was in love
But he
Was not.
