You're Very Beautiful

you come home earlier then expected,
but this time wasted
trying to preserve yourself a lil
with a bottle of red merlot
cause the empty glass reflects doubts

what did they say to you there,
in their psuedo-triumph
to crumble apart your prev'ous view
of yourself and do you worry
that i see at all the way they do?

i'm sensing the skin on you
trying to hide out of view
when your eyes look to the ground
and you ask just what i'm looking at

paintings from different era's
and different cultures
depict beauty differently
color, size, symmetry

but in any time to come
and any time that's gone
no matter what you wear and weigh,
and where - you're very beautiful

you're very beautiful to me
and that's what it takes to last an eternity
and i hope you see in yourself what i see in us both
don't go plastic and silicon
you're very beautiful

your cousins clearly have issues,
quite a few
telling you to upgrade a size or two
i'd hate to burst their bubbles
it'd be bad for their health

paintings from different era's
and different cultures
depict beauty differently
color, size, symmetry

but in any time to come
and any time that's gone
no matter what you wear and weigh,
and where - you're very beautiful

you're very beautiful to me
and that's what it takes to last an eternity
and i hope you see in yourself what i see in us both
don't go plastic and silicon
you're very beautiful

people sacrifice a part of themselves
for a part of someone else
and it's an invasion
that starts to take over

and i'd never wanna lose you
but if you ever left me don't leave yourself
it should never go down that way
you're very beautiful

you came home earlier then expected,
but this time wasted
trying to preserve yourself a lil
with a bottle of red merlot
cause the empty glass reflects doubts

i'm sensing the skin on you
crawling to hide out of view
when your eyes look to the ground
makes me sad how you look at yourself like that

the arts from different era's
and different cultures
depict beauty differently
color, size, symmetry

but in any time to come
and any time that's gone
no matter what you wear and weigh,
and where - you're very beautiful

you're very beautiful to me
and that's what it takes to outlast an eternity
of narrow ideas, can you view what i see in us both
don't go plastic and silicon
you're very beautiful
you're very beautiful
you're very beautiful
