Canvas

Tuning out of starlight
The innocent lifetime
Flickers and flashes
Onto a canvas
No, nobody seems worth it
While the feelings sophisticated
The view is so restrained
The past is nearing
Closer, and closer I fear.
So lets just cut the bullshit
And tell me whos independent.
Thumbs twiddling
And your lifes escaping your mind.
Keep in mind
Well the air aint as free
As it used to be
But thats quite alright
While youre still eighteen
It seems, to be
And ill tell you whos overrated
Whats a beautiful person
With some hideous dreams?
While the lining isnt silver
Were verging on the side of the road,
Thatll take us home
The edge of us is getting weighed
Read about your life
In your local papers
Realize
The end of us is getting near
Youre just a droplet of paint
Trickled off your canvas
Delirious , illusions flowing backwards
Through the river of colour
While we analyze
To try to see it clearer
Secretly appealing
To a lonely prisoner
Now whats your vision?
Initiate your shading
Blend the universe together
In time it only gets a little easier
Suddenly you piece yourself
Back together
Now whats your vision?
♪
And I dont
Wanna have to give a damn
About you
Or your inhibitions
After all
Youre the one who taught me
Love was not for everybody
However
Im starting to see this world
In the right light
Yet it still gets darker
You see
Its just a simple symphony
Or a painting?
Whatever
This unnatural path
It spans infinitely
But my world is crumbling
Let it collapse
Into the abyss
In the midst of summer
It wont exist
This emptiness
Its just a blank slate
Waiting for a painter to interfere
Its quite complex
But what do I know?
