Epitaph (Black And Blue) Lyrics

Her close friends have gathered. 
Lord, ain't it a shame           
Grieving together                
Sharing the blame.               
But when she was dying           
Lord, we let her down.           
There's no use cryin'            
It can't help her now.           
                                 
The party's all over             
Drink up and go home.            
It's too late to love her        
And leave her alone.             

Just say she was someone   
Lord, so far from home     
Whose life was so lonesome 
She died all alone         
Who dreamed pretty dreams  
That never came true       
Lord, why was she born     
So black and blue?         
Oh, why was she born       
So black and blue?
