Picture You
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.
If I could tell you no
I thought it best you didn't know
Don't see it coming
The darkness visible
But when its eyes fix mine
It's silver and it's stone
I feel it rising, oh
The gathering storm
And when I feel that darkness
Is a heartbeat away
And I don't know how to fight it
It's a heartbeat away
And now you don't know me like this
It's a heartbeat away
And I don't know how to hide it
It's a heartbeat away
And I picture you
Soaked in light
I picture you
And in you I have no doubt
When the chaos calls me out
And it feels like there is nothing I can do
I'll picture you
And the night falls fast
I know it's heavy on the skin
Will it be ever thus?
Barely visible
But when your eyes fix mine
Embracing your denial
Well, I hold my breath
Through the waste and the wild
But when I feel it rising
And it's a heartbeat away
And I don't know how to fight it
It's a heartbeat away
And now you don't know me like this
It's a heartbeat away
And I don't know how to fight it
It's a heartbeat away
And I picture you
Soaked in light
I picture you
And in you I have no doubt
When the chaos calls me out
And it feels like there is nothing I could do
I'll picture you
