Prelude Lyrics by Miley Cyrus
Like When Following An Image From A Train
Your Eyes Can’t Keep The Passing Landscapes
From Being Swallowed Into Endless Distance
Like When Holding A Fistful Of Ashes
Your Hands Can’t Save The Things That Have Already Been Dissolved Into Air
Like When Facing The Sun Through A Window
Your Skin Feels Warmth
But It Can’t Be In The World That Its Warmth Has Made Alive
Like Walking Alone Through A Lucid Dream
Like Saying Your Name Aloud In An Empty Room
Like Witnessing My Body Standing In A Mirror
Aching To Be Seen, Aching To Become Real
But The Beauty One Finds Alone
Is A Prayer That Longs To Be Shared
Something Beautiful Album Tracklist –
