Beautiful Lyrics

Everybody knows that we live in a world where they give bad names to beautiful things.
Everybody knows that we live in a world where we don't give beautiful things a second glance.
Heaven only knows that we live in a world where what we call beautiful is just something on sale.
People laughing behind their hands, while the fragile and sensitive are given no chance.
And the leaves turn from red to brown.
To be trodden down.
To be trodden down.
And the leaves turn from red to brown.
Fall to the ground.
Fall to the ground.
We don't have to live in a world where we give bad names to beautiful things.
We should live in a beautiful world.
We should give beautiful a second glance.
And the leaves fall from red to brown.
To be trodden down.
Trodden down.
And the leaves turn green to red to brown.
Fall to the ground.
And get kicked around.
You strong enough to be.
Have you the courage to be.
Have you the faith to be.
Honest enough to say.
Don't have to be the same.
Don't have to be this way.
C'mon and sign your name.
You wild enough to remain beautiful?
Beautiful.
All the leaves turn from red to brown.
To be trodden down.
Trodden down.
And we fall green to red to brown.
Fall to the ground.
To be kicked around.
You strong enough to be.
Why don't you stand up and say.
Give yourself a break.
They laugh at you anyway.
So why don't you stand up and be.
Beautiful.
