But Beautiful
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
She is dancing for you now
Watch her twirling in the crowd
She is beautiful
She is beautiful
She is fine
She's filled with grace
Such loveliness for such a place
She is beautiful
She is beautiful
And you're left alone to ask of the ground
"Will you hold?"
She is beautiful
She is beautiful
This world alone is not enough
The swollen song burns and tapers off
She is beautiful
She is beautiful
Where fearless ones go out and play
Barreling through to Heaven's gates
She is beautiful
She is beautiful
Her skin beneath her fingernails
Blood stains tell her sordid tales
She is beautiful
She is beautiful
'Cause night recedes in scorching lines
The city's burning all the time
She is beautiful
She is beautiful
But will you hold her?
Will you hold her?
Will you?
She is beautiful
She is beautiful
She is beautiful
She is beautiful
She is beautiful
She is beautiful
