Beautiful

Boy you dug your head in a thousand holes
You got to stand up, you got to take the blows
‘Cause if you don’t take the blows
Then the girl won’t sing and the gas won’t blow
Sometimes I think that I think too much
And that it’s all in my head and I can’t touch
‘Cause if you touch too much
Then the lights won’t go on and the water won’t flush
And I’m chasing all my cares away
Fighting for freedom for one way
And I’m chasing all my cares away
So take me to that beautiful way
Nitrous in my eyes, I blank too much
And if I carry on, my mind will turn to mush
And if it turns to mush
Then the strings won’t batter and the paint won’t brush
He said 'You're only happy when you’re pissed'
I said ‘No, I’m not', He said, ‘I insist
How many times could you have blown a kiss
But instead you swung your fist?'
And I’m chasing all my cares away
Fighting for freedom for one day
And I’m chasing all my cares away
So take me to that beautiful way
So take me to that beautiful way
What was that ripping away?
Oh was it, was it a time?
Was it part of a crime?
You can only own your own life
So why own mine? I own mine
And I’m chasing all my cares away
Fighting for freedom for one day
And I’m chasing all my cares away
So take me to that beautiful way
Take me to that beautiful way
Take me to that beautiful way
Take me to that beautiful way
