Marillion Beautiful

Pocas letras provocan la sensación de Beautiful de Marillion y correspondo su punto de vista en el tratamiento que se le da a las cosas bellas en esta época materialista.

Everybody knows we live in a world where they give bad names to beautiful things
Everybody knows we live in a world where we don’t give beautiful things a second glance
Heaven only knows we live in a world where what we call beautiful is just something on sale
People laughing behind their hands
As the fragile and the sensitive are given no chance

And the leaves turn from red to brown
To be trodden down
To be trodden down
And the leaves turn from red to brown
Fall to the ground
Fall to the ground

We don’t have to live in a world where we give bad names to beautiful things
We should live in a beautiful world
We should give beautiful a second glance

And the leaves fall from red to brown
To be trodden down
Trodden down
And the leaves turn green to red to brown
Fall to the ground
And get kicked around

You strong enough to be..
Have you the faith to be..
Sane enough to be ..
Honest enough to say..
Don’t have to be the same..
Don’t have to be this way
C’mon and sign your name
You wild enough to remain beautiful?
Beautiful

All the leaves turn from red to brown
To be trodden down
Trodden down
And we all fall green to red to brown
Fall to the ground
But we can turn it around

You strong enough to be..
Why don’t you stand up and say
Give yourself a break
They laugh at you anyway
So why don’t you stand up and be
Beautiful.

Black, white, red, gold, and brown
We're stuck in this world
Nowhere to go
Turnin' around
What are you so afraid of?
Show us what you're made of
Be yourself and be beautiful
Beautiful
