Beautiful
Yesterday is such a painful memory embedded in our consciousness
The sub conscious clings desperately to fantasies of tomorrow
And today becomes a blur filled with distain
She's always laying in her bed fighting thoughts inside her head
Bringing tears to her pillow in droves
Unfortunately she's died one million times drowning in those sorrows
Wrapped in false promises that tomorrow will be a better day
Oh but life is beautiful
Death lurks around the corner ominiously awaiting its turn
To pluck each precious flowers from their sacred garden
At which time the world starts to reel from the tragic loss
And she crawls back to her bed again consumed with tears
Battling the questions in her head that no man has the answers to
The sunlight sneaks in a ray of shine literally bringing traces of peace of mind
Into a world utterly drenched in darkness
She begins to see
Life is beautiful
Her table is bare and the many mouths that once ate there
Seem to wither and disappear in the wind
The storm clouds grown near as her heart is filled with fear
She contemplates what the living will be
Some how she knows that it can never be easy
Empty souls pass through the corridor of life wandering aimlessly
Oblivious to the beauty at hand
She's sitting on her bed face is stained with tears
Now she finally understands that
Life is beautiful
