About the Artist
Lyrics
[Verse 1] I would like, I would prefer no choice Just one bread, just one milk, one food for all I'm confused I only want one truth I really don't mind being lied to Don't mind being lied to [Chorus] So picturesque Picturesque, it's in your heads So picturesque Picturesque, now wake yourselves [Verse 2] The shadow is, the shadow is a cross okay But judgement must, judgement must be willing today Silence is not sacrifice, crucifixion, the easy life Crucifixion, the easy life [Chorus] So picturesque Picturesque, it's in your heads So picturesque Picturesque, now wake yourselves [Verse 3] The luxury of one more try Pretend humility the ugly lie Humility the ugly lie [Chorus] So picturesque Picturesque, it's in your heads So picturesque So picturesque, if nothing else
