This Ugly Yet Beautiful World

by Jaymilynn Gonzalez   Jul 8, 2006


In this ugly world I search for protection
I try to find a place where I feel safe and loved
As I see familiar faces and wonder who they really are
People aren't always as they seem they hide themselves
But there's one person who opened up to me
And that person was you

In your arms I feel safe
I don't need to have make up or a new dress
You still think I'm beautiful
No matter how bad things may get
In the end we still have each other
And that's how you showed me
That there is beauty in this ugly world

When it's pouring rain you come and get me
We dance in each other's arms as the rain falls down on us
Mud is everywhere and the sky is dark
But we're laughing and smiling
So it's more beautiful than it seems

We're walking together
Discussing our dreams
You take my hand in yours
You tell me people are different
Some bad some good
Beauty is hidden inside everyone
That's why people say
"True Beauty is on the inside"

If everybody knew this then the world wouldn't be so sad
But you can't always have good times
Because you need the bad times as well
So we can all find love, happiness, and sadness
Every time we turn
But that makes living worth while
In this ugly yet beautiful world
