YOU PAINTED A PICTURE
YOU PAINTED A PICTURE FOR ME
ALL THE PAIN IN THE WORLD I'VE ENDURED COULD'NT PAINT THIS PICTURE FOR ME
BECAUSE WHEN THE AWNING SNAPPED AND THE UMBRELLA BROKE
NOTHING COULD STOP THE RAIN FROM FALLING DOWN ON ME I FELT BROKE
TOO FOCUSED ON THE INNER TORMOIL AND PAIN
YOU PAINTED THE PICTURE FOR ME I SHOULD NOT FEEL ASHAMED
BECAUSE IT WAS HAPPENING TO ME
THE MAJESTIC COLORS I COULD NOT SEE
HOW WONDERFUL AND GLORIOUS LIFE COULD BE
IT WASNT MY FAULT ALL THIS SHIT HAPPENED TO ME
YOU MY LOVE PAINTED THIS PICTURE FOR ME
YOU TAUGHT ME HOW TO MIX THE COLORS ON THIS PALETTE CALLED MY LIFE
PLACED IT ON MY WALL FRAMED IT UP REAL NICE
THEN I GOT COMFORTABLE
I STOPPED PAINTING
THE COLORS BEGAIN TO FADE
AND THE PICTURE YOU PAINTED FOR ME
BECAME NOTHING MORE THAN A DISTANT MEMORY
ONLY WHEN IT FELT LIKE IT WAS TO LATE DID I REMEMBER THESE THINGS ON THE PICTURE YOU PAINTED FOR ME
YOU SAID I COULD START OVER
SO TODAY I PAINTED ME A PICTURE WITH THE PRETTIEST SHADES OF BLUE
WHEN I LOOK AT THIS PAINTING LOVE I THINK OF YOU
SO WHEN LIFE FADES MY PAINTINGS I CAN ALWAYS TOUCH UP OR START BRAND NEW
BUT THE BEAUTY OF IT ALL IS NOW I SEE ENOUGH COLORS THAT I CAN PAINT A PICTURE FOR YOU......
