My Friend, The Doctor.

All alone in this tempest sea.
A world ripping apart as we strive to peer around its corners.
The fabric on the walls.
Tapestries woven of forgotten deeds and lost memories.
Better things on the other side.
Staring through the glass walls.
The world is full of beautiful things.

The whine of warning.
An earthquake.
A shudder through your skin.
Embittered striving for a snow covered peak.
Addicted.
The power of exertion.
Butterfly wings.

A siren's song.
I must because it is.
It is because.
Force it down.
Burning in the soul.
I will behold but I will not low.
Fairy tale kings.

A clenching fist.
A coiled muscle.
Snatch it.
Seize it.
Fighting to the bitter end.
Conquer and claim it.
Each new day undoubtedly brings still more beautiful things.

Do not move.
Do not breathe.
Let no one see the shame you wear.
Within the grasp.
The reach of your hand.
So easy to crush the spirit of the simple.
The world is full of beautiful things.

A stir inside your heart.
Palpitations and tremors.
Bite your lip.
Hold your tongue.
Sweaty palms.
The desire for your will to break.
Beautiful people too.

Move me.
Stir me.
There is an echo in my hollow shell.
Save me.
Burn me.
Can you build in me a human soul?
Beautiful people like you.



Each verse represents one of the seven deadly sins, hence why they have seven lines. The last line from each verse is a lyric from the song "Beautiful Things" from the original Doctor Dolittle, however I used a title from another song in the movie because I liked it better.
