A prisoner in a masterpiece
The smoothest colors flourish on
Melding empty space together
Our souls painting till we're goneFrom barren lands, fading out
As if twilight is as strong as day
Light struggles to escape
Now encroaching darkness maySuffocate the pangs of life
A pulse to slow and deepen still
The pieces shifting out of place
Out of sight, the people willFight each other day and night
Smudge and smeer the colors far
Grotesque scenes in disarray
Shattered whole, the pieces areLost in time, they dissappear
But there behind a broken heart
Colors stir and grow anew
Our souls to fill the hollow artInside the painted picture perfect
The likes of which is dear to me
Colors that always swirl together
To make it feel like we are free
