But Beautiful

She is dancing for you now
Watch her twirling in the crowd
She is beautiful
She is beautiful

She is fine
She's filled with grace
Such loveliness for such a place
She is beautiful
She is beautiful

And you're left alone to ask of the ground
"Will you hold?"
She is beautiful
She is beautiful

This world alone is not enough
The swollen song burns and tapers off
She is beautiful
She is beautiful

Where fearless ones go out and play
Barreling through to Heaven's gates
She is beautiful
She is beautiful

Her skin beneath her fingernails
Blood stains tell her sordid tales
She is beautiful
She is beautiful

'Cause night recedes in scorching lines
The city's burning all the time
She is beautiful
She is beautiful

But will you hold her?
Will you hold her?
Will you?

She is beautiful
She is beautiful
She is beautiful
She is beautiful
She is beautiful
She is beautiful
