Lyrics

This is a song that was on the "Afraid of Sunlight" album originally
And, um, we took it to bits
Like all the others, this is "Beautiful"
Everybody knows we live in a world
Where we give bad names to beautiful things
Everybody knows that we live in a world
Where we don't give beautiful things a second glance
Heaven only knows we live in a world
Where what we call beautiful is just something on sale
People laughing behind their hands
While the fragile and the sensitive are given no chance
And the leaves turn from red to brown
To be trodden down
Trodden down
And the leaves turn from red to brown
Fall to the ground
Fall to the ground
We don't have to live in a world
Where we give bad names to beautiful things
We should live in a beautiful world
We should give beautiful a second chance
And the leaves turn from red to brown
To be trodden down
Trodden down
The leaves turn green to red to brown
They fall to the ground
And they get kicked around
And the leaves turn from red to brown
To be trodden down
Trodden down
And we all fall green to red to brown
Down to the ground
We can turn it
We can turn it
We can turn around
You're strong enough to be
You're strong enough to be
Beautiful
Thank you
