Treat him/her right!!
In my quest to write the saddest song possible, this is probably the closest I've got.

Leia had to go
All around the town
I hear the bells ringing
She had to go
We'll never hear again
the wonder child singing
Leia had to go
Trapped inside her mind
the night they brought her in
She had to go
A hundred old scars
and fresh cuts on her skin
It was all a dream
The monsters in your bed were never real
It was only a dream
that put you in hospital for weeks
Leia had to go
All around the town
I hear the bells ringing
She had to let go
Now we'll never hear again
the wonder child singing
Leia had to go
This doormat will never be trampled again
Leia did let go
This needle will never console her vein
Leia had to go
and now she'll never again be forsaken
She did let go
Now she won't need to wake up
alone, cold and shaken
It was all a dream
It doesn't matter what you seen or feel
It was only a dream
that broke your jaw and both your knees
Leia had to go
All around the town
I hear the bells ringing
She had to go
Now we'll never hear again
the wonder child singing
She once said 'let's go away
and find some peace within
This race against the time
you know, no one can win
Love will lead us on
through all the sick and the vile
and it never goes away
it just hides awhile
then shows up the same
Leia had to go
All around the town
I hear the bells ringing
Leia had to go
Now we'll never hear again
the wonder child singing
Leia is gone
All around the town
I hear the bells ringing
Leia had to go
We'll never hear again
the wonder child singing
