fold (uk) - picture perfect lyrics

Loading...

pick a perfect picture
and i’ll show you lines that can divide
the soft focus smoothing over
the imperfections that we hide

segregation of the soul
one that designates our roles
as pre-determined curtains drop
exposing all for show

post a picture perfect
then speak of its delights
speak of the harmless hidden treasures
speak of the small-print that denies

that crimes can go unwritten
absurdly blurring fact & fiction
this canvas frame’s no longer fitting
and views can change in different lights

for what else is money?
except for paper with pictures
metal with inscriptions
upon which we base convictions

and what else can we call prestige?
except another person’s creed
that stacks one man’s certain need
against another’s lurking greed

and how else would you view fame?
except for well-controlled acclaim
well-positioned to place with products
and well-conditioned to play the game

and what of those who see the illusion?
and recognise its sweet perfume
are they not consumed by self-delusion?
or merely add to the confusion?

for if you pick a perfect picture
i’ll show you lines that can divide
a gentle focus smoothing over
the imperfections that we hide

segregation of the soul
one that designates our roles
for when the curtain drops…. nothing stops
for on must go the show
