something beautiful

if you put your arms around me, could it change the way i feel
i guess i let myself believe that the outside might just bleed it's way in
maybe stir the sleeping past lying under glass
waiting for the kiss that breaks this awful spell
pull me out of this lonely cell

close my eyes and hold my heart
cover me and make me something
change this something normal into something beautiful

what i get from my reflection isn't what i thought i'd see
give me reason to believe you'd never keep me incomplete
will you untie this loss of mine, it easily defines me
do you see it on my face
that all i can think about is how long i've been waiting to feel you move me

close my eyes and hold my heart
cover me and make me something
change this something normal into something beautiful...

and i'm still fighting for the world to break these chains
and i still pray when i look in your eyes
you stare right back down into something beautiful

close my eyes and hold my heart
cover me and make me something
change this something normal into something beautiful...
