Bye Bye Beautiful

Finally the hills are without eyes
They are tired of painting
A dead man's face
Red with their own blood.
We used to love
Having so much to lose
Blink your eyes just once
And see everything in bluish.

Did you ever hear what I told you?
Did you ever read what I wrote you?
Did you ever listen to what we played?
Did you ever let in what the world said?
Did we get this far just to feel your hate?
Did we play to become only pawns in the game?
How blind can you be? Don't you see?
You chose the long road, but we'll be waiting
Bye bye beautiful! Bye bye beautiful!

For the blinded siblings
Walking her dying earth
Lose around a choking heart
Eternity torn apart
Slow down out a funeral prayer
I need to guide you through a lie

Did you ever hear what I told you?
Did you ever read what I wrote you?
Did you ever listen to what we played?
Did you ever let in what the world said?
Did we get this far just to feel your hate?
Did we play to become only pawns in the game?
How blind can you be? Don't you see?
You chose the long road, but we'll be waiting
Bye bye beautiful! Bye bye beautiful!
Bye bye beautiful! Bye bye beautiful!

It's not the tree that forsakes the flower
But the flower that forsakes the tree
Someday I'll learn to love these stars

How blind can you be? Don't you see?
How blind can you be? Don't you see?
How blind can you be? Don't you see?
That we can't erase our own destiny

Did you ever hear what I told you?
Did you ever read what I wrote you?
Did you ever listen to what we played?
Did you ever let in what the world said?
Did we get this far just to feel your hate?
Did we play to become only pawns in the game?
How blind can you be? Don't you see?
You choose the long road, but we'll be waiting
Bye bye beautiful! Bye bye beautiful!
Bye bye beautiful! Bye! Bye! Bye! Bye!
