beautiful disaster

the story of my life ...

he drowns in his dreams
an exquisite extreme i know
he's as damned as he seems
more heaven than a heart could hold

and if i tried to save him
my whole world could cave in

it just ain't right
it just ain't right

oh and i don't know
i don't know what he's after
but he's so beautiful
such a beautiful disaster
and if i could hold on
through the tears and the laughter
would it be beautiful
or just a beautiful disaster

he's magic and myth
as strong as what i believe
a tragedy with
more damage than a soul should see
and do i try to change him
so hard not to blame him
hold on tight
hold on tight

oh and i don't know
i don't know what he's after
but he's so beautiful
such a beautiful disaster
and if i could hold on
through the tears and the laughter
would it be beautiful
or just a beautiful disaster

i'm longing for love and the logical
but he's only happy hysterical
i'm waiting for some kind of miracle
waiting so long

he's soft to the touch
but frayed at the ends he breaks
he's never enough
and still he's more than i can take
