Lyrics

Beautiful Mess
Music and lyrics by Natalie Hiong

It's time to leave, no looking back
Have I packed everything yet?
I grab a photo with my family
I'll always keep it close to me

Nineteen years in a porcelain castle
Time to break off from these shackles
I'm a thousand miles from home
Searching for a life of my own

Chorus:
This beautiful mess of my own creation
Awash with colours of fear and excitement
I'm an unstrung pearl lost in this world
Watching my own life unfold
No one I'm trying to impress
This is my beautiful mess

Walking down these concrete streets
And I'm grooving to the busker's beats
The cityscape's pretty, the sky's so clear
I'm still figuring out my way round here

Making lullabies of midnight sirens
This recipe from home just doesn't taste right
In this sea of people,
I'm just another sailing through

Chorus

Bridge:
I'm having the time of my life
But I miss you, I miss you
The stars in these velvet night skies
Are they the same ones you see too?

Chorus:
This beautiful mess of my own creation
Awash with colours of fear and excitement
I'm an unstrung pearl lost in this world
Watching my own life unfold
No one I'm trying to impress
This is my beautiful..
This beautiful mess of my own creation
Awash with colours of fear and excitement
I'm an unstrung pearl lost in this world
Watching my own life unfold
Searching for my destiny
The person whom I'm meant to be
No one I'm trying to impress
This is my beautiful mess
