Something Beautiful Lyrics

[Verse 1: Masked Wolf & (Tom Walker)]
I've been tryna find my way to leave
Stuck in the belly of the beast
It's getting hard to breathe

Broken down, I'm turning in my sleep
Nothing is ever too steep
I'm tryna find my peace (Find my peace)

[Pre-Chorus: Tom Walker]
'Cause I've been feeling up, down, put out, lost counts
Of every sin
Just tryna find a new way, true say, real change
It's not too late
Fight away the darkness, new dawn, new day will break

[Chorus: Tom Walker]
I'm just holding on to happiness from all the pain from
Something beautiful (Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh-ooh)
Something beautiful (Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh-ooh)
Something beautiful (Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh-ooh)
I'm just holding on to happiness from all the pain

[Verse 2: Masked Wolf]
Drowning so much, I'm affectеd by the ripple
Feeling so low that I can't evеn see the middle
Dark days, lost ways, made me feel little (Ayy)
Tryna find the words, like we be playing with the riddle
I know now I've been tryna hold myself (Myself)
Looking in the mirror, I don't know myself (Myself)
Emotions on loan, like I owe myself (What?)
Head out the window when I'm screaming for help
[Pre-Chorus: Tom Walker]
'Cause I've been feeling up, down, put out, lost counts
Of every sin
Just tryna find a new way, true say, real change
It's not too late
Fight away the darkness, new dawn, new day will break

[Chorus: Tom Walker]
I'm just holding on to happiness from all the pain from
Something beautiful (Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh-ooh)
Something beautiful (Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh-ooh)
Something beautiful (Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh-ooh)
I'm just holding on to happiness from all the pain

[Bridge: Tom Walker & Masked Wolf]
We find the light on darker days
We seize the joy through all the pain
We feel the love, won't hesitate
Take every chance that comes our way
The little things, we appreciate
We fight for truth, a heavyweight
And every win, we celebrate
We celebrate


[Chorus: Tom Walker]
Something beautiful (Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh-ooh)
(We find the light on darker days)
(We seize the joy through all the pain)
Something beautiful (Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh-ooh)
(We feel the love, won't hesitate)
(Take every chance that comes our way)
Something beautiful (Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh-ooh)
(The little things, we appreciate)
(We fight for truth, a heavyweight)
I'm just holding on to happiness from all the pain from
Something beautiful

What did Tom Walker say about "Something Beautiful"?
Genius Answer

Tom Walker:

I’d already been working on the song when I heard “Astronaut In The Ocean” and we asked Masked Wolf if he would have a go. He sent back a verse after a few hours and it was exactly what the song needed. I’d been going round the houses on different verses, never landing the right thing, but as soon as we added Masked Wolf into the mix, the song just worked! It’s about being super grateful for what you do have. Finding “Something Beautiful” in the dark times.

Masked Wolf:

When I heard the song, I thought what in God’s name is this?! There was so much emotion, it gave me goosebumps—I had to jump on it straight away. I felt there was a connection with Tom’s lyrics because I love talking about emotions and topics that matter.
