Everybody knows we live in a world |
|
Where they give bad names to beautiful things |
|
Everybody knows 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 |
|
As the fragile and the sensitive are given no chance |
|
And the leaves turn from red to brown |
|
To be trodden down |
|
To be 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 fall from red to brown |
|
To be trodden down |
|
Trodden down |
|
And the leaves turn green to red to brown |
|
Fall to the ground |
|
And get kicked around |
|
You strong enough to be |
|
Have you the courage to be |
|
Have you the faith to be |
|
Honest enough to stay |
|
Don't have to be the same |
|
Don't have to be this way |
|
C'mon and sign your name |
|
You wild enough to remain beautiful? |
|
Beautiful |
|
And the leaves turn from red to brown |
|
To be trodden down |
|
Trodden down |
|
And we fall green to red to brown |
|
Fall to the ground |
|
But we can turn it around |
|
You strong enough to be |
|
Why don't you stand up and say |
|
Give yourself a break |
|
They'll laugh at you anyway |
|
So why don't you stand up and be |
|
Beautiful |
|
Black, white, red, gold, and brown |
|
We're stuck in this world |
|
Nowhere to go |
|
Turnin' around |
|
What are you so afraid of? |
|
Show us what you're made of |
|
Be yourself and be beautiful |
|
Beautiful |
