Marilyn

A picture on the doctor's wall
Blonde hair, sparkling blue eyes
Marilyn you were my idol, Now I know why

Troubled inside
To the world, you showed only grace
All curves and conviction, Lipstick on a smiling face

I need to be like you today
Sittin' here wondering what the doctor will say
I look alright on the outside
I may not be fine

Tell me I'm not dying on the inside

Pictures of all kinds of women
Surround you there on the walls
Some with flat chests, some with no hair
Proud to show it all

Marilyn, I need your courage
I guess that's why you are there
They may take my flesh, I may lose my hair
Please help me prepare

I need to be like you today
Sittin' here wondering what the doctor will say
I look alright on the outside
I may not be fine
Tell me I'm not dying on the inside

You took your own life Marilyn
I'm gonna fight for mine
Gonna fight for life, Gonna fight for time
I need more time

I need to be like you today
Sittin' here wondering what the doctor will say
I look fine on the outside, I may not be fine
Tell me I'm not dying inside
Tell me
