They say a picture says a thousand words
So I took a photograph just hoping that someone would listen to what I’m sayin
A portrait depicting my trembling body caught in storm
And all the blankets in the world ain’t keeping this boy warm
And what I’m trying to say is that I don’t think you can see
The tearing within the painting that my heart keeps trying to seam
Maybe if I wanted someone to free me of my world
I’d be hide a bit less behind a mask, tear down my metaphors and take a picture of my words.
But you won’t see them
And you won’t see me
Shining my true north’s light
But I don’t have much time
I’ll take my polaroids and leave everyone behind
