First it comes on quiet creeping slow.
|
Clever words and phrases always stain,
|
I remain so lost and buried under everything
|
that i need when all i want is you.
|
|
I've been here so very long and every word
|
is calculated, never questioned or debated
|
All these practised poses, I could wreck it if i had
|
to but i'm the wreck so what would that do.
|
My masterpiece will fall apart;
|
it was over before the start
|
|
[chorus]
|
If I burn out and slip away.
|
If this is just a part I portray and
|
this is just a part I portray
|
You're beautiful can I hide in you awhile.
|
but this is just a part I portray
|
and this is just a part I portray
|
|
They keep mostly to themselves;
|
don't make a sound in case they hear you,
|
It only hurts me to be near you.
|
Keep those tired eyes closed careful follow my instruction
|
and i will show you self-destruction.
|
This Masterpiece is only mine, entirely guilty by design
|
|
[chorus]
|
If i burn out and slip away.
|
If this is just a part I portray and
|
this is just the part I portray
|
You're beautiful can I hide in you awhile.
|
this is just a part I portray,
|
can I hide in you awhile.
|
|
I just can't let, let it out
|
oh I just can't let it out
|
I just can't let, let it out
|
oh I just can't let it out
|
I just can't let, let it out
|
oh I just can't let it out
|
|
if this is just a part I portray,
|
You're beautiful can I hide in you awhile,
|
You're beautiful, if this just a part I portray,
|
if this is just a part I portray,
|
I don't know how it got this way
