Where are all the Beautiful People?
words and music: Nancy Magarill
when I was young I believed that I could be anything
the world was big and it was free and I could dream dreams
now I learn as we grow old the truth is traded bought and sold
and we will do as we are told it’s cold so cold
where are all the beautiful people
now each night I rest my head upon the lies that I have read
i think that maybe we are dead or maybe we’re all afraid
just in case I close my eyes and pray into the fading skies
that maybe one day we will find that there’s a sweeter way
where are all the beautiful people
one day I thought I heard a voice from the past but he rushed away
he left me standing there alone in his trail with my dreams of yesterday
guess he had nothing to say
