Portrait

Where do I go from here? How do I disappear? Here beyond the looking glass Somewhere off the beaten path Heartache never seems to pass, just lasts And I'd go Yet I know that tomorrow comes So I'll be here when you rise Stay real close and the moment will subside Look the other way as I bottle myself up inside I won't let the teardrops spill tonight Just conceal myself and hide A portrait of my life Somewhat desensitized Still the same hopeful child Haunted by those severed ties Pushing past the parasites Down but not demoralized Unconfined, but don't let go Yes, I know that tomorrow comes So I'll be here when you rise (rise) Stay here close and the moment will subside Look the other way as I bottle myself up inside I won't let the teardrops spill tonight Just conceal myself and hide A portrait of my life And for the finale, she can float Around effortlessly And dream away the hours in her mind And I let go Yet I know that tomorrow comes (tomorrow) So I'll be here when you rise (rise, rise, rise) Stay here close and the moment will subside (The moment will subside) Look the other way as I bottle myself up inside (The other way, other way) I won't let the teardrops spill tonight (no, no, no) Just conceal myself and hide This portrait of my life
