[Verse 1] She stands there alone On the edge of the night Mascara running But it catches the light She's sipping the remnants Of a glass full of ice Forcing a smile But the truth's in her eyes [Pre-Chorus] She's falling apart But somehow the pieces Are their own work of art [Chorus] She's a beautiful mess In a shimmering dress It's tattered and torn But she shines nonetheless Her world is on fire But I have to confess I'm enchanted by her This beautiful mess [Verse 2] There's a ball on the ceiling That blinds me each turn The music is blaring Yet my only concern Is the mysterious girl Who's captured my eye I'm wondering who Could make this angel cry Has sanity crept Right out of my mind? Why am I so enthralled? Have I had too much wine? Could it be that I've felt Exactly like this But never felt stunning Just alone and depressed... [Chorus] She's a beautiful mess In a shimmering dress It's tattered and torn But she shines nonetheless Her world is on fire But I have to confess I'm enchanted by her! This beautiful mess This beautiful mess
