Beauties (a view from a bridge) Lyrics

When I look at all you Beauties

It makes me so unhappy

Knowing I'll never be

Anything to you

Nothing

Never looking back

While we dream of a life we could have had

But what makes it worse with you

I appeared upon your horizon

But like a deer in your headlights

I gave it all away

I stopped trying, stopped talking, stopped aiming

To lift those sad eyes from the earth

Stopped moving, stopped wondering

Laying passive, Aggressive

Story of my life

What's the point in trying

When no one's really there

Looking up from the gutter

When you're going nowhere

I can't imagine how you feel

The pain that you've endured

Another time and place could have worked

I wrote this song in a minute

When they usually take a month or two

This one about myself, I guess

Time on my hands and myself on my mind

But its you, only you

Emotions will run high

They say its 'cos I'm a young man

But I've spent centuries dreaming

Dreaming of lives with you

I'll watch the galleries burn

No Beauty shall remain while this sewer lies

Open, Burning, Scowling, Imploding

Marat's yearning for you

There's not a single life

I'd trade for one with you

But just to be around brings

Chances and Dreaming

And that's alright with me

I'll keep dreaming, keep hoping, keep aiming

Keep smiling, keep looking your way, keep talking

Keep laughing, Keep chancing, keep searching for answers

Keepsakes, keep memories

Remembering the thought of you

I'll keep dreaming, keep hoping, keep aiming

Keep smiling, keep walking your way, keep talking

Keep laughing, Keep chancing, keep searching for answers

Keepsakes, keep memories

Remembering the thought of you...
