Beautiful Self

Eleven

Swollen fingers, gripping the brushes
Sleepless hours, haunting the eyes of her youth
She'll never stop rising from ashes
Marveling at her taste of ocher over crimson

Salty water blows up the color beyond
Breathing and crying, part of her dying
As the sun bled the sky, it bled the sky
She loses her beautiful self to the world

Loses her beautiful self to the world
Loses her beautiful self to the world
She loses her beautiful self to the world

Flaming reason, tripping her shot at the crowd
Her life is an easel, framing what no one has found
Breathing and crying, part of her dying

As the sun bled the sky, as the sun bled the sky
As the sun bled the sky, it bled the sky
She loses her beautiful self to the world

Loses her beautiful self to the world
Loses her beautiful self to the world
She loses her beautiful self to the world
She loses her beautiful self to the world

Loses her beautiful self to the world
Loses her beautiful self to the world
She loses her beautiful self
The soil is never full enough
She loses her beautiful self to the world
