Beautiful

I wish you weren't so beautiful in my eyes

Wish I could tell you my sweet little lies

Wish you would stop singing me these lullabies

I can't sleep with eyes open wide.

Fallen angel, I've laid a path for you.

I'm hoping you would learn a trick or two

Still the same flesh and bone

You're telling me you don't know if I have you.

You've always been the reason why

The scars you gave me were always worthwhile

And if I don't measure up to who you want me to be

I'll grow some wings, pretend to fly.

Someone dies and someone heals.

Some pray while others steal.

Some may rise and some may kneel,

You're alive the day you start to feel.

I'm in the night that fills your sky.

I'm in the dreams that made you fly.

I'm in the tear that fell from your eye.

Still wait for you, across the divide.

I wish you weren't so beautiful in my eyes

Wish I could question all the reasons why

Wish I didn't fall, wish I could rise

Come out from the shadows,

Aren't you weary of the hide?
