You Are The Only Beautiful Thing Lyrics

Summer thunder, evening rain

Sunny showers, dying flame

Doesn't matter, looks the same

You are the only beautiful thing

Friendly spiders, evil nuns

Poison flowers, plastic guns

Live for hours all at once

You are the only beautiful thing

You woke me up to tell me we had to wake up early

You woke me up with your screaming

You shook me up and told me they arrived early

I heard the drop, I was hoping I was dreaming

Something shatters, homes destroyed

Sudden laughter, drones deployed

Forever after, through the void

You are the only beautiful thing

Stop and listen, form a line

Steady rhythm, march in time

Stars may glisten, and bullets shine

But you are the only beautiful thing

Spinning arrows, graceful flight

Shining barrel, a flash of light

And to our peril, this gorgeous fight

But you are the only beautiful thing

You sat me down and told me there's no point in running

You sat me down so I'd understand

We heard the sound that warned us worse things were coming

It shook the ground, and you took my hand

Hold your lover, target hit

Run for cover, blown to bits

And with a burst of colour, the atom splits

But you are the only beautiful thing
