Portrait (Hopeful Child Remix [from Audible Words + Music])

Yeah, um
'Cause we used to just, like, let it, let, let the beat be anything, you know?
It didn't have to be specifically
In the same key or the same vibe
Definitely not the same vibe, but
As the original
So you could just be free

Portrait of my life
Portrait of my life (oh)
Portrait of my life (yeah)
Portrait of my life (my life)
My life

What is it?
It's just a portrait of my life
Hey (my, my)
My life

Portrait of my life

My life, my life

Hum, and then I would leave stuff and just be like, okay, well
Hey, this is a different thing, like-
I have to put my, like, not have a perfectionist hat on
When I'm doing this
It's hard

Portrait of my life
Portrait of my life (I gotta think about it)
Life
Portrait of my life (we all)
Portrait of my life
My life, my life (paint a picture)
It's just a portrait of my life

Somebody
Where do I go from here? (Where, where, where?)
Tell me, how do I disappear? (Where, where, where, where?)
I'm here beyond the looking glass, yeah (somewhere off the beaten path)
Somewhere off the beaten path
Have you ever felt the heartache?

Heartache never seems to pass, the (it's like)
Heartache never seems to pass, the (never seems to pass)
Heartache never seems to pass by (sometimes)
I said the heartache never seems to pass, the (It lasts, it lasts, it lasts)
Heartache never seems to pass, the
Heartache never seems to pass by
Let the heartache last inside of me

If it wasn't for you, I'd go (I'd go)

If it wasn't for you, I'd go (and I go)
If it wasn't for you, I'd go (I'd go)
If it wasn't for you, I'd go

I guess I'm somewhat desensitized (where, where, where?)
But I'm (Where, where, where, where)
Still the same hopeful child (where, where, where, where?)
Haunted by those severed ties
Pushing past the parasites
Down but not demoralized (life)
Unconfined

Portrait of my life

If it wasn't for you, I'd go (it's just a portrait of my life)
If it wasn't for you, I'd go
If it wasn't for you, I'd go
If it wasn't for you, I'd go
It's just a portrait of my life

Yes, I know
Tomorrow (tomorrow)
There's always tomorrow
Yes, I know
Tomorrow (there's always)
Tomorrow comes, I feel the same
I try and try to change the gray
I fear the sight, but I can't hide the portrait of my life

It's just a portrait of my life
Somebody sing it to me

(Look the other way as I-)
Yet I know that tomorrow comes
So I'll be here when you rise (look the other way as I-)
Stay real close and the moment will subside
Look the other way as I (look the other way as I bottle myself up inside)
Bottle myself up inside
And I won't let the teardrops spill tonight
Just conceal myself and hide
A portrait of my life

Float around effortlessly and dream away the hours in her mind (mind)
And for the finale, she can- (she can float)
Float around effortlessly and dream away the hours in her mind (mind) in her mind

On another galaxy
Picture me for eternity
