Lyrics
Portraits of the Past
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
The feeling never did leave
When did you doubt your own beliefs?
Going back on your word
Your reality must be absurd
Your pride cometh before the fall
Standing behind your invisible wall
Your life, nothing, indifference to me
Open for all eyes to see
You could not wait so you got left behind
Misjudged emotion, these decisions have left you blind
I take you down off my shelf
And put you away for someone else
To see this all brings me disgust
You turn your back on those who mean so much
I find you so alone and empty
In someone else's gallery
Time you found another to use
