BEAUTIFUL

There were many, the great and devastating things we did, to feel beautiful.

Back in the time when we were just two friends with nothing to fear.

We used to fight every battle together, always together, victory felt so near.

Those times when we had everything to lose, and the world wasn't enough.

because they told us not to cry—they decided our fate and we couldn’t change it.

I tried to fix it—I tried to take us back to our real home, but they found me.

Now you are a stranger, and there in the mirror, I see someone who isn't me.
