Beautiful Things

Lyrics

[Verse 1] You're standing at your bathroom mirror Cryin' "What did I do?" tears Your friends are out and you're right here There's a party, you didn't know You just found out from your phone Did they not want you to go? [Pre-Chorus] Oh yeah, you feel that twisting knife Oh, I know it ain't right [Chorus] Fires burn up canyons A hurricane can wreck a beach Words can make a mockingbird forget they're born to sing Lies can break a fragile heart And doubt can crush your dreams But, honey, just take it from me The world is hard on beautiful things [Verse 2] You're pretty and you're smart God made a work of art Girl, don't pick yourself apart And quit wonderin' why he did it Nothing 'bout you needs fixin' It ain't what you are, it's what he isn't [Pre-Chorus] Oh, I know it don't feel fair But, oh, I can't count the times I'vе been there [Chorus] Fires burn up canyons A hurricanе can wreck a beach And words can make a mockingbird forget they're born to sing Lies can break a fragile heart And doubt can crush your dreams But honey, just take it from me The world is hard on beautiful things [Bridge] You shine, it's gonna be alright You're gonna be alright You shine, it's gonna be alright You're gonna be alright [Chorus] 'Cause fires burn up canyons A hurricane can wreck a beach Come on pretty mockingbird, I wanna hear you sing Lies can break a fragile heart And doubt can crush your dreams But, honey, just take it from me Just hold on, just breathe The world is hard on beautiful things [Outro] You shine, it's gonna be alright You're gonna be alright
