Beloved
Ben Barnes
I loved her against reason
Against promise, against peace
Against hope, against happiness
Against all discour a gement that could be
I know you’re running on instinct
Soul laid out bare
Veins pumping blood but they’ve been stripped
Lungs breathing smoky air
Vision and edges burned
Fighting to be seen be felt be heard
Tip toe your every breath
Make me believe in life after death
You are beloved so be loved (beloved beloved)
Tip toe your every part
Let me carry your heart in my heart
You are beloved so be loved
(Beloved beloved)
I know your mind’s working overtime
I sit tight to wish on a star
Your heart is beating to match mine
But I want who you already are
Something inside you stirs
Fighting to be seen be felt be heard
Tip toe your every breath
Make me believe in life after death
You are beloved so be loved (beloved beloved)
Tip toe your every part
Let me carry your heart in my heart
You are beloved so be loved
(Beloved beloved)
(Beloved beloved)
Get up off of your knees
(Beloved beloved)
It’s no time to freeze
(Beloved beloved)
Come on baby please
Your future lies ahead of you
Where it’s supposed to be
(Beloved beloved)
Tip toe your every breath
Make me believe in life after death
You are beloved so be loved (beloved beloved)
Tip toe your every part
Let me carry your heart in my heart
You are beloved so be loved
(Beloved beloved)
