Paint

[Verse 1: Ekoh] Here we go, a simple question Got it on repeat something like They may never know who you are If you just keep smiling So I just keep smiling... Like everything's gonna be alright Some times I just wanna go back home And crawl back in the bed and go back to my childhood In two thousand and two (2002), I could still dream Didn't need to Never feel so see through Scared of the present, past is a lesson And now I wanna sequel. Everybody thinks they know me That's true, why am I so lonely? On the outside looking in on my own reflections Like where've you been Hey it's me again, nice to meet again Mister "I don't want your help, I don't need a friend" Think you got it all figured out, you don't If you think time is gonna help you change, it won't Both know, we can never get so low. Hide them with the thoughts Which you write but you don't show It's all good 'till you lose yourself, we both know the way that feels Put it on your back so stressful, hold tight, don't let go Break those thoughts to let go. Through that home you grew up in It's not so simple Look at them, so quick their judge, hate, admire and love Anything and anyone you paint your picture of... [Chorus: Josh Rabenold] I'm gonna paint you a portrait, I'm gonna cover up the flaws You'll only see what I put in the frame, hanging on the wall I'm gonna draw you a picture, of a man who has it all You'll never see any of the pain, hanging on the wall [Verse 2: Ekoh] I'm tryna grow with the changes, rearrange my focus Keep the surface clean but I mean when I change a view it's like Moving a paintbrush So we all get the things that we don't wanna show It's not easy to, come clean with you when I don't mean to be rude But my skin's so uncomfortable. I just... Wanna run, chase the sun around Life's been so dark in this town How to tryna get up when you're so fucked up and become so used to being down When the drugs stop working, and the pain's still present Not as strong as I claim to be, I'm just... Still here to deliver this message Need to turn back, don't deserve that Eventually this picture'll turn black and I'll be ghost You wanna seek everything that I tried to hide 'cause I don't confide in you You just don't get it, I'm too different so pathetic Don't play but I feel so indebted, so ugly disconnected Put it all for the world to see I'm just, Don't wanna be told I'm not enough Stuffed all of the problems down And I colored this cave with some broken crayons It's all pain in the process, I'm like "I'm fine I got this" Change the topic, here it is. I'll paint the picture to leave you with [Chorus: Josh Rabenold] I'm gonna paint you a portrait, I'm gonna cover up the flaws You'll only see what I put in the frame, hanging on the wall I'm gonna draw you a picture, of a man who has it all You'll never see any of the pain, hanging on the wall [Verse 3: Ekoh] One day we can watch this fall apart and you'll see me What's the point when I'm scared to move and I feel so low compared to you and I'm sinking I don't cry for help, I use the map, I draw myself and still pretend my love is not a broken compass 'cause I know the feelings were still often felt in my numbness, here waiting for this to develop And living my life up under this umbrella, the color is gone, I know that it's wrong But I can't stop this, nah I can't face this truth When I break it down and it never shows just know I did this all for you... [Chorus: Josh Rabenold] I'm gonna paint you a portrait, I'm gonna cover up the flaws You'll only see what I put in the frame, hanging on the wall I'm gonna draw you a picture, of a man who has it all You'll never see any of the pain, hanging on the wall
