beth seymour & the lizzies - paint lyrics

Loading...

i keep a book of my thoughts
in the front i take note
when i’m feeling awful
and in the back i write down
when i feel confident or beautiful or happy
i won’t say which side is dominating now

i’m old testament all dressed up like an orphan
living in these tattered old rags
i’m a beast defined in biblical proportions
it’s toxic just to breathe of my breath

i’m dripping with paint
trying to change who i am
but it still shows on my face
and i’m trying to create
a perfect person
it doesn’t run in my veins

i keep the walls of my room
plastered with posters
of bands i loved in high school
and haven’t listened to since
and i don’t have tattoos
i haven’t even pierced both my ears
in the bathroom
it’s just too hard to commit
i’m a testament to lack of self approval
all beat up and black
my breastbone thumps with pain of its removal
that beating was the best i ever had

i’m dripping with paint
trying to change who i am
but it still shows on my face
and i’m trying to create
a perfect person
it doesn’t run in my veins

i’m starting to enjoy the silence
to not hear music how i used to
it’s a constant struggle trying to write it
when i’ve only lived vicariously through you

i’m dripping with paint
trying to change who i am
but it still shows on my face
and i’m trying to create
a perfect person
it doesn’t run in my veins
in my veins, in my veins
in my veins
in my veins, in my veins
in my veins
