Beautiful Things

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?

Oh, yeah, you feel that twisting knife

Oh, I know it ain't right

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

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

Oh, I know it don't feel fair

But oh, I can't count the times I've been there

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

You shine, it's gonna be alright

You're gonna be alright

You shine, it's gonna be alright

You're gonna be alright

'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

You shine, it's gonna be alright

You're gonna be alright
