This song speaks for itself. If you need this one explained then you haven't read the books and I don't want to spoil you, so get the books!!!

lyrics

I await to hear your song
Rue, what's happened to you:
I'm listening hard but i can't hear you sing
What is wrong, I can't hear your song
the Mocking Jays are not singing along
My Rue, what has happened to you?

our plan was to go and attack
destory their supplies, i'm sure they won't like that
but now the deed's been done but where have you gone?

the 1st 2 fires burned real high
the 3rd one's smoke never saw sky
I'm sure you had to run, but where have you gone?

I hear my Name called out at night
i'm coming rue please don't be affright
as my arrow hits my target i see i'm too late

a spear to the belly has sealed your fate

and now you wait to hear my song
rue, it's the least i can do
as i sing fall peacefully to sleep
and for the rest of my life
I think of you every night
My Rue, I wish I could've saved you
