Kind Of Like Spitting Born Beautiful (Live) lyrics

They were born beautiful, so right away
They swore that they'd get themselves a house one day
And read to each other, despite all the others
That have passed through their back gates
They were both radiant, and far away
Living on a diet of romance and faith
'Til history crept in and wouldn't leave them
It's a classless kind of fate
It holds its ground in the way that death just makes you wait
With new fears to head at the cutting room floors
Where their hopes are
Because it's not pretty
And if they had to watch a movie of it

I'm sure they'd both be horrified
Horrified and bored
All the hope gets shafted
To bet on the good life
For all the granite etched in
They may as well have been man and wife
All the fits he'd throw
Feeling her anger grow
It's not the way that they used to
Talk to one another, like they used to
