Beautiful thing, you lock your sights, your hands are trembling Savoring the taste of flesh and bone Another one found, the rain it pounds, and something looks the same Innocence, you crave it black and cold Take it down now, throw it down, all you men wear that crown
Beautiful things, what would you know, you're rotting from within The only self you care for is your own Another one found, the rain it pounds, and something looks the same Pure young skin, there's madness in your sin Take it down now, throw it down, all you men wear that crown
Are you afraid to close your eyes Afraid there's nothing left to die On hills of ice there burns a fire I'm coming for you from behind
Crazy young man, you think you found, an alibi in privilege You're hollow inside, it bothers you, I know You try and fill it in, you'll never win, you're running just the same The thing you hate the most, a pure soul Look around boy, look around, see you're all alone now
Shut out the noise that fills your mind And in the end you'll see your life You're burning up before the fire You never heard me from behind
Sometimes I have dreams, of life, And all that dies comes back to grow, it's beautiful, ahh So no, you'll never really know You'll never really know You'll never even know, your final breath
