Song Lyrics

"Beautiful"

by Waiting for Iris
Album: Waiting for Iris

Freedom took my hand
Walked through the door
To the faded room
That left me unsure
Whispered to me I had nothing to fear
Slowly caressing away my tears

Somewhere in between
I lost track of time
Why do I feel this shame
When it's not a crime
Needle numbing to what's real
That's how they teach you not to feel

But I felt you move
Sensed your breath
Life alive living in darkness

CHORUS
I ran into an old friend
Her story's just like mine
She told me how it hurt so bad
But just to give it time

I'm not the only one
Who's been so mislead
They get what they want
But that's left unsaid
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Missed your smile
Your first kiss
Broken chance of a birthday wish

CHORUS
Well I don't know what I'm waiting for
Cause time is not the cure
To bring this child back to me
With the chance to live once more

Memory, is what you are
Beautiful, left this scar

Caught inside this web- web that I'm spinning
Retracing my steps to the beginning
White room- needle- that's where I am waking
Thoughtless choice made blind- I'm shattered and shaking

Memory, is what you are
Beautiful, left this scar.
