Ed Harcourt - El Magnifico

Strange Beauty

Strange beauty
I think that I've died
It dawns to me
Guess I'm barely alive

So what good am I in this darkness?
An incoherent mess
Strange beauty
Won't leave my soul to rest

So wanted (ah-ooh)
You're the ghost through my heart
So wounded (ooh)
You make this killing an art

What should I do with this sadness?
It's leaving me with love
There's no question
Strange beauty is the curse that is blessed

Hits you like the Shanghai bullet train
Burns you like that hero Chamberlain
Never know when it will strike again
It's devastating, everlasting, unrelenting
Strange beauty

Out on society's edge, see the distant lights
Slowly disappear
Far from the city of the dead and the great divide
Let's get out of here
Let's get out of here

Strange beauty
Unholy and brave
You surge through me
Electrified from the grave

What should I do with this happiness
That's cracking open my chest?
Strange beauty
Won't leave my poor soul to rest

Butterflies are bursting into flames
Dopamine is thundering through my brain
Now I'm dancing just like Cassius Clay
It's devastating, everlasting, unrelenting
Strange beauty

Strange beauty
Oh, strange beauty
Strange beauty
