Lyrics
Beautiful Jesus
What has gone on
I find myself ruptured in pain
To barely hold on
I lie beneath your handle
I lie beneath your eye
I?ll open up for you to rape my mind
This emptiness inside me
Can?t seem to hold it closed
Beneath your fortress hide me
Will you fill this hole
Tutor me your knowledge
Why I feel so alone
In some direction guide me
Can I call it home
---One hundred candles tell me
---One hundred flames will burn
---If only they will tell me
---To light each one in turn
---By now I planned on something
---To be more than here
Beautiful Jesus
Why do you stand so strong
Why do you stand so silent
Why are you so alone
Why did I even come here
Seeking all you pain
I?ll open up for you to take me again
You let me down
