Oh, Beautiful
Oh, Beautiful Dilemma: A Musical Reflection on Love and Self-Worth
Lyrics
What would you have me do?
What action do you want me to take?
Keep my mouth shut and sing the blues?
Should I stay silent and express my pain through music?
What would you have me do?
What is your expectation for my behavior?
Wait in the wings until I dance for you?
Should I remain in the background until I perform for you?
"Don't think too much," you pacify me
You advise me not to overthink, attempting to calm me down
Cause god forbid our past remind me
Because you don't want reminders of our troubled history
That you only care about you
Your concern is primarily for yourself
I don't deserve to be blue
I don't deserve to feel sad or down
How would you have me be?
How should I present myself?
ct arms length but still within reach?
Keep a certain distance, yet be accessible?
You promised you'd do me no harm
You assured me you wouldn't hurt me
When I fell for your charm, I landed in your teeth
But when I fell for your charm, I found myself in trouble
Don't pretend you're reckoning
Don't pretend to understand and make amends
cause your actions are deafening
Because your actions speak louder than words
So I'll dance with the ugliest truth
I will confront the harsh reality and dance with the truth
Just to know where I stand with you
Even if it's an unpleasant truth, I want to know where I stand with you
Oh Beautiful, forsake me not
Oh, Beautiful, do not abandon me
You use me like plaster to patch up the wall
You use me as a temporary solution to fix the damage caused by someone else
that this bastard put his hands through
Referring to a person who caused harm, questioning their genuine care
cre you certain he cares about you?
Are you sure he truly cares about you?
The truth wants to dance don't refuse
The truth is ready to be acknowledged; don't reject it
