Life Is Beautiful - Lyrics - A Bloody Canvas

As i walk these broken streets of rome I know i've never found a better home Then where we're living now, the shores of pompeii But there's something wrong, its a mortals song They said they don't believe, i found him on the tree Outside the cathedral Its not alright anymore, Its not fair to hold a hand, when the taste of sand And volcano blood is like a quiet world and a heart of mud And ash But the sun is still shining, so bright through the fog Isn't that kind of odd? I can feel a heartbeat from a distance Its barely in my chest I know i wouldn't have this meaning If you were like all the rest Its like the sun is a beacon Just lighting my path, as i walk through the dark Yeah, you're an echo, a phrase My halcyon days Are all thanks to you You've brigtened my spirits, gave hope to my heart Even in the pitfalls of history Well history tends to repeat itself Just like i'm repeating words As the gray skies of that tuesday rain down wallstreet men I know its somehow better than it maybe could have been As the prices fall, that baby crawls and doesn't miss a thing He's just a reason for why theres something bright In all the darkest days Call it history, call it fact But know even i would travel back To that single routine second that the shining era died Gatsby was forgotten, replaced by misery Money new and old was just replaced with shallow dust As the sun sets over the midwest shrouding us in shadow Of what we meant to be We're still here, and we still breathe Who gets any reason to just pack up and leave? I'll be the one to stay, saying the money will return I can feel a heartbeat from a distance Resonating in my chest I know i wouldn't have this meaning If you turned out like the rest Oh the sun seems like a beacon Just a light unto my path, as i walk on through the dark Yeah, you're an echo, a phrase My halcyon days Are all thanks to you You'll shine in all the darkest corners Spotlights on the sin of man When we seem to fight a war just over nothing I know theres just a reason it began (it began, it began, it began) The dust of the city was bound to stay for weeks But we all stayed at the screens waiting for the president to speak It was all there was to do, yeah there was nothing new But thats just news, its just news As the orders were all issued and the troops were then deployed It was all that we had left with our morale since destroyed But nothing is broken when it was never fixed And it never will be But aren't we still free despite all the rules? Who do you take us for, some halfhearted fools? We still have our minds and this freedom of phrase Someday we'll look back and think that these were the days These were the days, since hell, it could've been worse That son of a sinner seems like a curse But heed my words, hell, it could've been worse I can feel this heartbeat through the distance Echo through my chest I know i wouldn't think this meaning If you had been just like the rest You just made me so happy, That the shadows are revealed as trees upon the window Nothing is as bad as it may initially seem, Your my echo, a phrase This halcyon daze Is all thanks to you Looking back on history, I find speedbumps in our dreams Every cloud has silver lining And its you who made me see The light in the darkness I know this song is serious But this is seriously love I know i may sound foolish, But i'm just a fool for you I'm just a fool for you Your an echo, my phrase My halcyon days A golden haze Over the pitfalls of history When history repeats itself Just like the words i'm repeating
