Lauren Aquilina - Beloved

I've seen men shoot their brothers down
Blood thirsty, so hungry for that crown
I see girls avoiding dinner,
Whilst their minds grow ever-thinner
Like balloons going down

I've seen animals better behaved
The world's best poetry is written on our graves
I found companions in computers
Pixelated persecutors
But I'm not so brave

Dearly beloved, we're gathered here to fall
Dearly beloved, I don't feel beloved at all
Lovers, don't bother to learn each other's names
Divorce papers are thrown around like paper aeroplanes
It's so cool being lonely
It's so lonely being cool
Is this our fate?

Dearly beloved, we're gathered here to fall
Dearly beloved, I don't feel beloved at all
I didn't used to see the world this way
I was naive but now I see only grey
Can you taste it on your lips
The everlasting apocalypse
If only you'd stayed

Dearly beloved, he made me feel so tall
Dearly beloved, I used to have it all
Dearly beloved, here in these four walls
Dearly beloved, I don't feel beloved at all
