Life Is Not Beautiful

I used to dream, used to wish, used to wonder
I hoped for things that were not meant to be for me
The poetry lived in me but no longer
The painter died, the brush has broken and decayed
All colors faded away

The stories I wrote turned all into tragedies
No happy endings here

Tell me - is this
What you want from me

Tell me - is this
What I'm meant to be

Life is not beautiful
It is cold and lonely
Life is not beautiful
We all live and die alone
Hopeless, loveless we all fall down

I had a heart like a shrine, like a temple
But then they came, turned it into a house of trade
Stripped of my pride, here I lie, I surrender
Come gather 'round, see the flame burn out in my eyes

My failure is life-sized
For thirty pieces of silver is all we're worth
We live but never learn

Life is not beautiful
It is cold and lonely
Life is not beautiful
We all live and die alone
Hopeless, loveless we all fall down

So here I am standing now
My candle is burning out
The cracks on the ground, the sky is falling down
There is no way out

You already let me down
Betrayed ma and took my crown
When everything ends, the pain will fade out

Life is not beautiful
It is cold and lonely
Life is not beautiful
We all live and die alone
Hopeless, loveless we all fall down
