lyrics

“A Perfect Picture”
At the window on the other side of rain
Drawing faces, caught a splinter from the pane
It’s the only one in this room that I never leave
Do you remember a time that was love and loss
Stirring embers, all that’s left in the hearth
This is all that we have left to keep us warm tonight
The north wind blows and brings the snow, what will we do then
The trail is covered it’s the only path away from here
If the drops fall on the roof much harder
We will see no sleep at all tonight
There’s a doorway locked for so long I forgot
Whats on the other side and the key cannot be found
I know it’s somewhere but there’s just no need to hurry not today
Through the keyhole there’s a light that’s shining in like a prism
Everyday at 4om there’s a rainbow on the wall for a short time
Then it’s back, back to dark
The flowers on the table are suspended in still life
We should have left them in the garden where they wished to die
Not a glance has fell upon them, waterless and stranded
They’ll be just fine, they’ll be alright
A perfect picture
You’re the one that was forgotten you don’t remember
The last time you found the light
Trapped behind a mask til there’s nothing left
A perfect picture
That no one will ever see try to forget her
She has not and will never be
Trapped behind a mask til there’s nothing left
