Dashboard Confessional - So Beautiful

i heard that you were home again, but you don’t look like you’re back, to me.. with your focuses changing, your gaze
is transfixed on a point that I can’t often see, you’ve got your new ties.. i’ve got my old knots, you’ve got your inside lines, but you’re never happy with what you’ve got.

careful now, you’re so beautiful when you’ve convinced yourself that no one else is quite as beautiful..

i heard that you were living well, but you don’t look like you’re living to me.. though the sparkle is gone, the smile is in place so that everyone watching can see.. you’ve got them all convinced, but I know it so well: that you could list your friends, but you can’t count on them.

Hold it now, you’ve got everyone convinced that you’re alright. When no one else is quite as vulnerable

As soon as you got it you want something else, it’s not the sale that you love, its the sell.
It’s not the price that’s going to cost you, it’s just the weight that’s going to bring you down, down, down, down. It’s going to bring you down, down, down, down, down. …

It’s just the weight that’s going to bring you down.
