charm of finches – paint me a picture lyrics

silence on the telephone
gave me sp+ce to fill it with resent
but how i wanted you to hold me
how i wanted you to smile and take my hand
pain pulled you back
to a place words couldn’t describe
that i couldn’t see in your eyes
and yes i know i didn’t look hard enough
and oh how i wish i’d tried
instead of pushing you aside

so paint me a picture and i’ll tell you what i see
i see the pain in your eyes when you’re staring back at me
and oh how could i break it, trust built from the bone
and now i know your side of the story i struggle to see my own
i struggle to see my own

fitful feverish slumbers
wrenched up things i wanted to forget
looking the past in the face
i wanted to be anything but that
took me back to a place that held me in chains
where people screamed my name
it’s hard to confess how much i loved being a stranger in that place
telling made up stories
fitting a different person to my face
so paint me a picture and i’ll tell you what i see
i see the pain in your eyes when you’re staring back at me
and oh how could i break it, trust built from the bone
and now i know your side of the story i struggle to see my own
i struggle to see my own

and i hate how much my mouth just talks sometimes
maybe i’m not trustworthy, maybe you’re right
now it’s so hard to discern my wrong from right
oh i’m so sorry, i’ll try hard to find it
