Lyrics

Beautiful Pain

[Intro: Eminem & Sia]

I can feel the heat risin'

Everything is on fire

Today's a painful reminder of why

It can only get brighter (Brighter)

The further you put it behind ya (Behind ya)

But right now I'm on the inside

Lookin' out, 'cause

[Chorus: Sia]

I'm standin' in the flames

And it's a beautiful kind of pain

Settin' fire to yesterday

To find the light, find the light, find the light

Standin' in the flames

And it's a beautiful kind of pain

Settin' fire to yesterday

Find the light, find the light, find the light

[Verse 1: Eminem]

Yesterday was the tornado warnin', today's like the morning after

Your world is torn in half, you wake in its wake to start the mournin' process

And rebuilding, you're still a work in progress

Today's a whole new chapter, it's like an enormous asthma, ugh

Thunderstorm has passed ya

You weathered it and poked its eye out with the thornbush that ya used to smell the roses

Stopped to inhale, can't even tell your nose is stuffed

So focused on the bright side, then you floor the gas pedal

And hit the corner faster, more assertive, never looking back

May hit the curb, but every day's a new learning curve as ya

Steer through life, sometimes you might not wanna swerve but you have to

To avert a disaster, lucky no permanent damage

'Cause they hurt you so bad it's like they murdered your ass

And threw dirt on your casket, but you've returned from the ashes

And that hurt that you have, you just converted to gasoline

And while you're burning the past, standing at inferno and chantin'

[Chorus: Sia]

I'm standin' in the flames

And it's a beautiful kind of pain

Settin' fire to yesterday

To find the light, find the light, find the light

Standin' in the flames

And it's a beautiful kind of pain

Settin' fire to yesterday

Find the light, find the light, find the light

[Verse 2: Eminem]

You're so familiarized with what having to swallow this pill is like

It happens all the time, they take your heart and steal your life

And it's as though you feel you've died, 'cause you've been killed inside

But yet you're still alive, which means you will survive

Although today you may weep 'cause you're weak and

Everything seems so bleak and hopeless, the light that you're seekin'

It begins to seep in, that's the only thing keepin'

You from leapin' off the motherfreakin' deep end

And I'm pullin' for you to push through this feelin'

And with a little time that should do the healing

And by tomorrow, you may even feel so good that you're willin' to forgive 'em

Even after all the shit you've been put through, this feelin' of resilience is buildin'

And the flames are burnin' quick as fire would through this buildin'

You're sealed in, but you're fireproof, flame retardant, you withstood it

And as you climb up to the roof, you're just chillin', you look down, 'cause you're so over 'em

You could put the heel of your foot through the ceiling

As time passes, things change every day

But wounds, wounds heal but scars still remaining the same

But tomorrow, today's going down in flames

Throw the match, set the past ablaze

So feel the fire beneath your feet

As you barely even perspire from the heat

Exhale deep and breathe a sigh of relief

And as you say goodbye to the grief

It's like watching the walls melt in your prison cell

But you've extinguished this livin' hell

Still, a little piece of you dies as you scream

[Chorus: Sia]

I'm standin' in the flames

And it's a beautiful kind of pain

Settin' fire to yesterday

To find the light, find the light, find the light

Standin' in the flames

And it's a beautiful kind of pain

Settin' fire to yesterday

Find the light, find the light, find the light

[Bridge: Sia]

I feel the burn

Watch the smoke as I turn, rising

A phoenix from the flames

I have learned

From fighting fights that weren't mine

It's not with fists

But with wings that I will fly

[Chorus: Sia]

And I'm standin' in the flames

And it's a beautiful kind of pain

Settin' fire to yesterday

To find the light, find the light, find the light

Standin' in the flames

And it's a beautiful kind of pain

Settin' fire to yesterday

Find the light, find the light, find the light
