Portrait Of An Apology

                                  Look what I've done 

This picture I've painted 

It looks like my heart 

Or what still remains 



Convinced of the weight 

Your interpretations 

Are not what I see 

I wish they could be 



I remember it much redder 

I remember it much brighter 



[Chorus]

Can you stay for a while 

Try to imagine this 

Could you be for a while 

I can't remember it 

Could you fall for a while 

I can't escape from this 



I'll try to explain 

The way that the frame 

Doesn't quite fit the image 

Or surround the edge 



It stands on display 

What do you see? 

Behold all the new grey 

What's become of the old me 



I remember it much redder 

I remember it much brighter 



[Chorus] 



Calling, crying, ashamed of what I am not 

Really failing, falling into this cage and I can't escape 

I can't escape 



Look what I've done 

This picture I've painted 

Doesn't quite fit 

Or surround the edge 

I remember it much redder 



[Chorus] 



I can't escape, I can't escape, I can't escape
