Beauty - Tegan and Sara
Woke up with beauty in my bed
And isn't it sad how we don't know it's beauty until it's dead
And it's beauty that I knew so well
But she wasn't doin too well
Well I just wanna go someplace
Where no one knows my name
And I don't have to explain
No I don't have to retain that I
Lie to myself or protect myself
For the benefit of myself
I want power in my words
I want passion in my eyes
And when I wake up
I want life to be a surprise
And I guess that I didn't know it all along
And I guess that I never guessed
That I'd ever guess wrong
And I set myself up everytime you leave
Everytime you leave
To destroy the things I've got
For the things I need
Each conversation separate from themselves
Separates good from bad
And they never want what you got
Until it's up for grabs
And then they want what you have
Well I just wanna go someplace
Where no one knows my face
And I don't have to explain
No, I don't have to retain
That I lie to myself
That I protect myself
For the benefit of myself
I want power in my words
I want passion in my eyes
And when I wake up
I want life to be a surprise
And I guess that I didn't know it all along
And I'll never guess that
I'd ever go ahead and guess wrong
And I set myself up everytime you leave
Every time you leave
To deny the things I love
For the things I need
I want to break through
Oh I want one thing
I wanted To come through
Oh to come true
I want passion in my eyes
I want power in my words
And when I wake up
I want life to be a surprise
And I never thought
That I'd wake up
And be starving for you
No I never thought
That I'd wake up and I'd be hungry
I'm hungry for you
I want power in my words
I want passion in my eyes
And when I wake up
I want life to be a surprise
And I guess that I didn't know it all along
And I'll never guess that
I'd ever go ahead and guess wrong
Oh I want to break through
To break through
I want one thing I've dreamed for
to come true
Oh I set myself up
Every time you leave
To destroy the things I've got
For the things I need
To destroy the things I love
For the things I've seen
