Look at us now-
Are you happy with the way that things
Are going around here?
Are you happy now?
Opened my skin, made a claim of revolution
Then you let yourself back in
Look at us now, are you saddened with the way that
I am carelessly unbound and still happy now
Opened my skin, made a claim of resolution
Then you let yourself right back in
You are such a beautiful thing
When you're helplessly crying your eyes out
And i hope that there's a better man inside of me
But i'm starting to doubt that there is.
What have we become?
I'm falling in and falling out
Of a thousand days we lived for love(are you happy now?)
Battered hearts and broken tongues
Oh, we let it fly
As i pound my fist against the wall
And you are such a beautiful thing
When you're helplessly crying your eyes out.
And i hope that there's a better man inside of me
But i'm starting to doubt that there is.
So if you ain't lonely then why'd you let me in,
Pulling me from the wreckage?
And you smile-but smiling's just a phase
And i can't get caught in your forever.
You are such a beautiful thing
And i hope that there's a better man inside of me
And you are such a beautiful thing
When you're helplessly crying your eyes out
And i hope that there's a better man inside of me
