The Beautiful Ones
Flies with a broken wing, she's ever so graceful, so like an angel,
but I see, tears flow quietly
The struggle she's seen this spring, when nothing comes dancing,
paying a handsome fee, and still she smiles at me
And I can't take it, no I can't help but wonder...
Why do we sacrifice the beautiful ones?
How do you break a heart of gold?
Why do we sacrifice our beautiful souls?
Heroes of tales unsung, untold
Sweet as an angel sings, she gives though she has none left but the
last one, free, unhesitatingly
And I am humbled, I'm a broken mirror, and I can't help but wonder...
Why do we sacrifice the beautiful ones?
How do you break a heart of gold?
Why do we sacrifice our beautiful souls?
Heroes of tales unsung, untold
Why do we sacrifice the beautiful ones?
Why when they walk with love alone?
Why do we sacrifice our beautiful souls?
Just trying to find their way home
Why do we sacrifice the beautiful ones?
How do you break a heart of gold?
Why do we sacrifice our beautiful souls?
Heroes of tales unsung, untold
Why do we sacrifice the beautiful ones?
Why when they walk with love alone?
Why do we sacrifice our beautiful souls?
Just trying to find their way home
