Everyone's Beautiful |
I used to draw all the time back when I was in high school |
Thick yellow pencils with soft lead that smeared real easy |
page after page. |
I was lonely. |
But senior year I met a girl and she made me feel better here |
but a girl was a girl was a girl |
CHORUS |
And she was beautiful |
Everyone’s beautiful |
I smeared the picture and left it with her to appraise |
I remember in junior high, half sick from fear on the hillside |
Eddie wore braces and talked like he couldn’t be beaten |
Shawn had said Friday out back after school and Eddie was stumbling, |
blood mixed with drool |
But a fight is a fight is a fight |
CHORUS |
Still they were beautiful |
Everyone’s beautiful |
All of us crawling on hands and knees in need of you |
BRIDGE |
I want to lift |
my memory |
of them in the desert and set it on fire |
and watch it burn |
watch it burn |
Oh, how it changes |
and hope that the smoke of the sins of my youth |
will sail to the base of the throne of a King |
cause a prayer is a prayer is a prayer |
CHORUS |
And they were beautiful |
Everyone’s beautiful |
Let them all find their redemption down deep in Your eyes |
