Marcy Playground- Death of A Cheerleader

I do not own the rights to this, just a favorite song of mine*

She was so pretty, everyone said
The more so the pity
That she was found dead
And now the flag only flies at fifty percent
In the school yard where she once went
Push 'em back, push 'em back
Way back, way back
B-E A-G-G-R-E-S-S-I-V-E

And the death of a cheerleader
Take me by surprise
How the death of a cheerleader
Can open eyes

Yellow carnations and roses galore
Were sent to the mother and
Placed by the door
And in the spot where her daughter had
Taken her life
Was a sweet sixteen photo
On homecoming night
Push 'em back, push 'em back
Way back, way back
B-E A-G-G-R-E-S-S-I-V-E

And the death of a cheerleader
Takes me by surprise
How the death of a cheerleader
Can open eyes
And it's sad that she had to die
To open eyes

Nobody doubted her future was vast
Nobody noticed she grew up so fast
It's a shame that her future's a thing of the past
Tomorrow's the funeral you know
L-E-T-S-G-O

God, how can you not love this band? for me, if not all of their songs, a lot of their songs go straight fo heart for me. These guys are great! God I hope these guys are doing well together. It would really take a toll on me if they split. I've heard a lot of good bands, but Marcy Playground are super glued to the top of my list! everyone? if you are looking for a great band that everyone can enjoy, I would recommend Marcy Playground to anyone and everyone. They are just all around great!

Cool Song. Never heard it before.

[OMGitsREAPER]

Beautiful song!

@shysop You can't say that I am wrong for how I interpret a song, besides your comment has nothing to do with what I said... Why would you call me an idiot when we are talking about two different things. Doesn't that make you the "idiot"?

[shysop]

@Smidthmador No, it means that even though people may appear pretty and happy on the outside, they aren't always pretty and happy on the inside. Idiot.

Makes me a bit bitter inside to be honest.

This song reminds me of my friend Seth... He committed suicide last year, he was a football player and a crew captain...

[Smidthmador]

Am I the only one that finds significance in the fact that she was pretty and people cared that she was gone? I don't think that people would have felt that way if she were "ugly".

[hpmfmheartless]

who was the idiot that disliked this?!?
