Something Beautiful

faded,
away like the color
in a blue sky
at the end of the day
night falls,
and the search begins
for something
something better than this

scream or a cry
the truth or a lie
i'm not sure they will save us this time
i don't wanna be around
when it all comes down
to watch something beautiful die

you said the only way is to run away
you're sick of me so you just can't
stick around to hear me pleadin
i'm pleadin
does it show, i'm pathetic i know
i just cant stand here watch you go
i'm runnin after you, i'm runnin after you

helpless cus my hands are tied
eyelids pinned back so they're opened wide
in a theater
all alone
in the front row
to watch something beautiful die

scream or a cry
the truth or a lie
i'm not sure they will save us this time
i dont wanna be around
when it all comes down
to watch something beautiful die

you say the only way is to run away
sick of me so you just cant stick around
to hear me pleadin i'm pleadin
does it show, i'm pathetic i know
just cant stand here watch you go
i'm runnin after you i'm runnin after you

what happened to
the things that we used to do
you said its all the same
and that you needed a change
you left without good-bye
and now i'm wonderin why...

i dont think i wanna know...
all the things he does better
how the past just doesnt matter
you left me once this time will be the last time

you say the only way is to run away
sick of me so you just cant stick aournd
to hear me pleadin i'm pleadin
does it show, i'm pathetic i know
just cant stand here watch you go
i'm runnin after you i'm runnin after you

look for the feeling that we lost
where'd you have it last
maybe if we retrace our steps
but we cant find the path
that led us here to where we stand
face to face to watch this bitter end
now something beautiful is dead
