[Verse 1] As I was walking through a life one morning The sun was out The air was warm but Oh, I was cold And though I must have looked a half a person To tell the tale, in my own version It was only then that I felt whole [PreChorus] Do you believe in something beautiful? Then get up and be it [Chorus] Fighting for the smallest goal To get a little selfcontrol I know how hard you try I see it in your eyes Call your friends cause weve forgotten What its like to eat whats rotten Whats eating you alive Might help you to survive [Verse 2] We went on as we were on a mission Latest in a grand tradition Oh, what did we find? It was Ego who was flying the banner Me and Mia, Ann and Anna Oh, wed been unkind [PreChorus] Do you believe in something beautiful? Then get up and be it [Chorus] Fighting for the smallest goal To get a little selfcontrol I see it in your eyes I see it in your spine Call your friends cause weve forgotten What its like to eat whats rotten Whats eating you alive Might help you to survive [Bridge] And even the nights, they could get better And even the days aint all that bad And after a week of fighting As more and more it seems the right thing [PreChorus] Do you believe in something beautiful? Then get up and be it [Verse 3] Fighting for the smallest goal To get a little selfcontrol Wont anybody here Just let you disappear? Not doctors, nor your Mom and Dad but Me and Mia, Ann and Ana Know how hard you try Dont you see it in my eyes? [Chorus] Sick to death of my dependence Fighting food to find transcendence Fighting to survive More dead but more alive Cigarettes and speed for living Sleeping pills to feel forgiven All that you contrive And all that youre deprived All the bourgeois social angels Telling you youve got to change Dont have any idea Theyll never see so clear But dont forget what it really means to Hunger strike when you dont really need to Some are dying for a cause But that dont make it yours [Outro] And even the nights, they could get better
