i see it written on your face
you’re so tired of stumbling
cause every step that you take
is a step closer to falling

i know the longing behind your eyes
i can remember the better times
and some day’s it’s hard to believe that we’re gonna find

we'll be beautiful again

i admit i know the pain
you wonder why you have to wait in line
cause it's like picking the wrong lane
watching others simply pass you by

but they miss the beauty along this road
rushing to get where they’re told to go
but we share a secret that only a few will know

that we'll be beautiful again

out of the ashes Beauty will rise
a Resurrection before our eyes
cause Love lives on after everything dies

and we'll be beautiful again

one day we'll look back
and see how this road
wound like a drunk man
stumbling home
and how every whisper of joy, every bellow of pain

made us beautiful again
