Verse:
awaken to a sun
around a neon earth
to warm a frozen gun
believe that death is worth
the pain of
a high school end
the rest in a young suicide
the media drawing in
escape from a young girl’s life
from
a young girl’s life.
Chorus:
falling further every day
our tallest towers sway
i’m holding on in this world of decay
and i’ve
realized that
this is anything but beautiful
anything but beautiful
a world anything but beautiful
anything but
beautiful.
Verse:
awaken to a day
the fear in the eyes of a boy
the cold of a hospital stay
where a child is a cancer’s
toy
and if the angel for the lord
is the angel with the sword
i don’t believe it anymore
i just can’t
believe that anymore
holding on for a chance to be strong
Chorus:
but falling further every day
our tallest towers sway
i’m holding on in this world of decay
and
i’ve realized
this is anything but beautiful...
Bridge:
somebody hold my eyes close
somebody make the snow and the rain
one step from the fall don’t you
know
i stood next to heaven but the light never came
somebody keep my head turned
give me a soul for a piece of
the wire
i came for a god but it all burned down
in the fire
Chorus:
falling further everyday
our deepest oceans dry
we’re holding on in this world
of decay
will
we realize
open your eyes
this is anything but beautiful...
