I wish my brain would operate instead of standing still.

It's all so complicated,

The thread of my own thoughts seems to be disappearing into what seems

To be a logical conclusion.



I guess I just ran out of ideas.

I've heard a million songs about this and that,

And they gave me satisfaction

But I see,

It's a Beautiful life.



Now comes the second verse and I have to at least keep the measures

Straight.

It's been a long time now and i'm really insecure about it all.

I guess I didn't like seeing all the things I saw, Who needs it?

It's been a little painful and I hope I don't like the pain,

Cause I'd hate to think of myself like that



'Cause I see,

It's a Beautiful life.

I like the old things, But I just can't give up the idea

Of trying something a little bit different,

Even if it's stupid



'Cause I see,

It's a Beautiful life.

Yes, I see,

It's a Beautiful life.

And I see,

It's a Beautiful life
