Painting yourself from all the patterns you know
Each one has a different story to tell
But your wife makes you stop
Cause your colors are off
But does she even know what she wants?
Old paints falls in your hands
And with a finger she demands
You start to pay attention
To what tomorrow wants
But will it match your thoughts of
Today's canvas?
Forcing the brush 'till you break it
Are you the one you remember?
When choices paint over your reflection
Like a coat of white primer in the moment
Painting myself from some stories I know
Each one blots the truth of the other
Friends make me stop
Till my colors are on
But do they even know what they want?
Old paints falls in my hands
And with finger they demand
I start to pay attention
To what tomorrow wants
But will it match my thoughts of
Today's canvas?
Forcing the brush 'till you break it
Are you the one you remember?
When choices paint over your reflection
Like a coat of white primer in the moment
