Beautiful Alone

Yesterday is dead and gone
I’ll be gone before too long
Hope you know that your delusions aren’t real

I’ve been fighting for a cause
I’ve been fighting for us all
I’ve been trying to break down these walls

I’m paying for my freedom
I’ve been paying for deceiving
You when I said that I was strong

Everything that I would die for
Anything I’d tell a lie for
Surely me, lonely me, pretty me
I’m beautiful alone…beautiful alone

Tomorrow is fading fast
Come the dead hand of the past
Human rules, we silly fools
Are anything but sure

You that search and cry for change
While stagnant in your dreams and ways
Trumpeting your open eyes
Can’t see without open minds

Best start paying for your freedom
And start paying for defeating
Everyone, especially
Those you claim to love

Everything that you would die for
Anything you’d tell a lie for
Surely you, lonely you, pretty you
Still beautiful alone…beautiful alone
