Lyrics
But A Painting
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.
Closed eyes lay open wide
Calm inside, thought is clear and tears will dry
Old wounds are sterilized
I'm paralyzed by whatever's been applied
And somewhere the moon will rise
But clouds made of concrete block out the sky
And I never found the time
To count all the stars, nor to memorize
Breath is moving slow
Stable signs, looking fine but feeling cold
They must never know
That I've escaped from the dead fluorescent glow
And still the morning star
May shine from the dark matter pedestal
And venus and mars align
As I move away, away from imprisoning time
(I move away)
As I move away
Away from this prison of time
(I move away)
As I move away
Away from imprisoning time
In the silent morning I step out
From a world where I lived before
Failing every warning
Losing all that I earned, every soul I've adored
Burn it all, I sense the skies
I may fall, but then arise
Door stands open, light shines in
Burning walls will melt away
Wash my hands, forgive my sins
Lead me out, I went astray
Open doors
Light shines in
Wash my hands
Forgive my sins
Walls will melt away, burning down, washing out
Hear me out, I went astray, lead me out, take me home today
(Free my soul, and forgive my sins)
Free my soul from this sickened mind
Free my soul from this sickened mind
