The Beautiful Ones Lyrics

I think this song is about how we sometimes forget that the greatest people in our world aren't always the ones who get all of the recognition for their actions. There are people who do amazing things, and yet nobody thanks them, or even thinks about them. Despite that, these people just keep giving everything they have to help others, undeterred by our lack of greatfulness. That is how we sacrifice our beautiful ones. Some of these people we forget about could be soldiers or other servicemen, or even just members of the peace crops or salvation army. All heros of tales unsung.
