Beautiful Lyrics - Marillion

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 the 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 chence 

And the leaves fall from red to brown 

To be trodden down 

To be 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 faith to be.. 

Have you the courage to be.. 

Honest enough to say.. 

Don't have to be the same.. 

Don't have to be this way 

Come on 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 all 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.
