When We Were Beautiful
Lyrics
Like a bomb we could break the silence
Chaos reigns when we talk of violence
You, me and everyone else
Let's take this love and put it on a shelf
So this time we should pay attention
Take a moment for appreciation
Them, us, all alone
I cant tell if you've gotten older
Now we'll have fun, like when we were beautiful
We can't sit still, like when we were beautiful
Our make-up's ageing, our senses aching, all together we were better
Slowing down we've forgotten how to
Just a day to react on what's new
Oh, well let's move on
If nothings said then nothing is wrong
Thinking back to a place forgotten
On our own before it was broken
So, please, let's have hope
I can't tell if you really want to
Now we'll have fun, like when we were beautiful
We can't sit still, like when we were beautiful
Our make-up's ageing, our senses aching, all together we were better
Yeah
In Austin, Texas I met her at the festival
Kinda like a carnival, only space and time could tell
We were beautiful for a minute up on Instagram
Can't believe I got her number and I got to hold her hand
Beautiful, dutiful, poetry we shared, like
Looking back I think about the music we consumed right
Can I take a look at your haikus in the moonlight
Hedstrong and MC Lars we came to rock the tune right
Now we'll have fun, like when we were beautiful
We can't sit still, like when we were beautiful
Our make-up's ageing, our senses aching, all together we were better
We won't step in from the pouring rain
And take our chance to begin again
We can be so beautiful
Like a bomb we could break this silence
