Beyond Me Lyrics

[Verse 1]
If it all ended today
Would you be fine? Would you be fine?
If it all ended this way
Would you still be mine? Would you still be mine?

[Refrain]
Are you well? I can't tell
Do tell, do tell

[Pre-Chorus]
Everything we love must grow old
Or so I'm told, or so I'm told
You must release what you hold dear
Or so I fear, or so I fear

[Chorus]
But it's beyond me
Forever young and free
But it's beyond me
Forever young and free


[Verse 2]
If it all just went away
Would you be kind? Would you be so kind?
[Refrain]
Are you well? I can't tell
Do tell, do tell

[Pre-Chorus]
Evеrything we love must grow old
Or so I'm told, or so I'm told
You must relеase what you hold dear
Or so I fear, or so I fear

[Chorus]
But it's beyond me
Forever young and free
But it's beyond me
Forever young and free

[Guitar Solo]

[Chorus]
But it's beyond me
Forever young and free
But it's beyond me
Forever young and free

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]

About

This song bio is unreviewed
Genius Annotation

The eight track from “But Here We Are,” Beyond Me is another song about loss and grief. It wasn’t fathomable what losing someone would be like until he lost his best friend and his mother (Taylor Hawkins and Virginia Grohl). The pain was beyond him, a theme explored in the song and full album.
