"I have a daughter who reminds me too much of what i used to be, full of love and joy, kissing every person she met because everyone is good and will do her no harm. And that terrifies me to the point where i can barely function." -Kurt Cobain

Oh beautiful, oh beautiful
If only you could see

Oh Beautiful, oh beautiful

The grief that you bring me

Oh beautiful, oh beautiful

Please just stop crying

Oh beautiful, oh beautiful

And all your hope is dying

Oh beautiful, oh beautiful

Why are you so sad?

Oh beautiful, oh beautiful

Too young to have gone so mad

Oh beautiful, oh beautiful

What happened to your smile?

Oh beautiful, oh beautiful

Your tears could pave a mile

Oh beautiful, oh beautiful

You said that you want to die

Oh beautiful, oh beautiful

Why oh why oh why

AWWWWWWWWH! This is sooo sad but so good! I loved the repetition of the phrase. It was almost like even though you kept telling her that she was beautiful, she never beilived it. I loved this. Well done!
