Painter

Thrown away

The sketch of yesterday

The outlines shine through the cover

Like cruel reality

But I'm fine

Been there a dozen times

Just need another clover

Hope's the last to die

And so I wait

I've seen a thousand falling stars

Following every rainbow to where it starts

And every penny I had that could help to dispel

Lies at the ground of a wishing well

Painter

Draw yourself a stranger

And every single line

Leads to the one that you design

Until yourself is covered

I can't hide – I thought we're different now I know I was blind

The day will come I see your face in the mirror

And realize we're one of a kind

I cannot escape

My future's my fate
