Broken And Beautiful

from Into The Blue by Lucy Wise

/

lyrics

You tell me you talk too much
But I don’t reckon that you do
Not like the characters in kids’ cartoons
I like to hear of your adventures

You tell me you’re heavier
Than you were last year
And when I look your eyes are full of tears
You say your body is a prison

The lady on the billboard seems to have it all
But we all know that she is pinned against the wall
Broken and beautiful
Broken and beautiful

You tell me you cannot sing
But I know you have sung before
So come on out from all these padlocked doors
And let’s go dancing ’round the footpath

You tell me you’re getting old
That you’re forgetting lots of things
So now it’s time to open up your wings
And marvel at the crazy colours

The lady on the billboard seems to have it all
But we all know that she is pinned against the wall
The big guys all are trading on our broken souls
Broken and beautiful
Broken and beautiful
