Beautiful - 1999 Remastered Version



Lyrics

Everybody knows that we live in a world
Were they 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 that we live in a world
Where what we call beautiful is just something on sale
People laughing behind their hands
As 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... To be 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 faith to be...
Insane enough to be...
Honest enough to say..
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

All 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
Where stuck in this world
Nowhere to go
Turning around
What are you so afraid off?
Show us what you're made of
Be yourself and be beautiful
Beautiful
