Beauty And The Mess Lyrics - This Side - Nickel Creek

Blue waters blue eyes color me 

If any could come this close I'd let them see 

Get it out again and play 'em one more song 

It's all they really want and who's to say that's wrong 

Ain't that what you want them to know? 

All they get of you is what they get out of the show 

The rest is mine, I guess, the beauty and the mess to hide 

I pull myself under and down I go again 

It's just a little bit hard letting them in 

Looking at the world through elusive eyes 

I hide in the spotlight it's a great disguise 

Ain't that what you want them to know? 

All they all they get of you is what they get out of the show 

The rest is mine, I guess, the beauty and the mess to hide 

Behind the melody the words don't mean a thing 

But every tone I play would give whatever I've not said away 

Behind the melody the words don't mean a thing 

But every tone I play would give whatever I've not said away 

Behind the melody the words don't mean a thing 

But every tone I play would give whatever I've not said away 

Ain't that what you want them to know? 

All they, all they get of you is, all they get of you is 

What they get out of the show 

The rest is mine I guess the beauty and the mess 

Ain't that what you want them to know? 

All they get of you is what they get out of the show 

The rest is mine I guess the beauty and the mess 

The rest, the rest is mine, I guess the beauty and the mess 

The rest, the rest is mine I guess 

I guess the beauty and the mess to hide
