Hello Beautiful

(album: Lifer - 2017)

No more
I quit
I've had enough
I wasn't made for this
To all the lies that have tried
To cripple me with doubt
I think it's time to say goodbye
I know who I am now
Part of me says I'd be
Smart to walk away
But before I leave, I think I need
To call you out by name

Goodbye regret
Goodbye alone
Goodbye to emptiness
Say hello to beautiful
Goodbye afraid
Goodbye ashamed
Goodbye to hopelessness
Say hello to beautiful

Can you hear it
That's the sound of me walking out
Of this prison cell
That I've come to know so well
I used to play the victim, singing
Take these chains from me
But they have long been broken
I was free and would not leave
Somehow I got too comfortable
Locked up here in this prison
That I missed the doors wide open
More like ripped off of its hinges

Goodbye regret
Goodbye alone
(Goodbye)
Goodbye to emptiness
Say hello to beautiful
(Beautiful)
Goodbye afraid
Goodbye ashamed
Goodbye to hopelessness
Say hello to beautiful

Hello, hello, hello beautiful
Hello, hello, hello beautiful
Hello, hello, hello beautiful
Hello, hello, hello beautiful

Before I go, just so you know
There will come days again
Wrestling not to believe
The things you say I am
When I've forgotten what's inside
And who I'm meant to be
I remember what's inside
Has not forgotten me

Goodbye regret
Goodbye alone
Goodbye to emptiness
Say hello to beautiful
Goodbye afraid
Goodbye ashamed
Goodbye to hopelessness
Say hello to beautiful
(To beautiful)

Hello, hello, hello beautiful
Hello, hello, hello beautiful
(Beautiful)
Hello, hello, hello beautiful
Hello, hello, hello beautiful
