Your words are words
The canvas is meaningless
Just say it like you mean it
Rewrite it, repeat it
I painted you a portrait
You said, "Get to the point, get to the point"
Let me call it as I see it
Let me be the ghost writer
Who fills the page so you will take the blame
So I can be, I can be another person
A better person
Another place, a better place
Another person, a better person
Anything
I painted you a portrait
You said, "Get to the point, get to the point"
Let me call it as I see it
And it may not do you any justice
But it will do me well
Just to say this, just to say this
I sit alone and think of ways to escape this pen and ink
You wrote this in a letter:
"Those left with heavy hearts who try to save the world
Are only left to sink"
You left me to sink
I painted you a portrait
You said, "Get to the point, get to the point"
Let me call it as I see it
And it may not do you any justice
But it will do me well
Just to say this, just to say this
