Beautiful Son

[Verse 1]

Nothing in his mind, the rent there is much too high

Doesn't make him want to occupy this life

Hiding all the things he prays the world won't find

Still it makes him run away so paranoid

[Chorus]

Beautiful son, without your guns, you'd be someone

Beautiful son, without your guns, you'd be someone

[Verse 2]

Nothing in his mind but childhood memories

Doesn't make him want to live those years again

Hair is finally growing back over his wounds

Still it makes him want to hurt the ones he loves

[Chorus]

Beautiful son, without your guns, you'd be someone

Beautiful son, without your guns, you'd be someone

[Bridge]

So the future never came while the past is just the same

Though we both know you'll go far when you discover who you are

Who you are

Still on a mountain peak of anger, well

All that he can do is yell

To all of us down far, far below

But we all know

[Chorus]

Beautiful son, without your guns, you'd be someone

Beautiful son, without your guns, you'd be someone
