I'm the painter of human sorrows |
|
Creator of illusion you call life |
|
In my studio of higher arts |
|
I create masterpieces, one after one |
|
Yet there's nothing quite like |
|
The art of suffering |
|
Masterly I play a symphony |
|
With shadows and light |
|
For light and darkness |
|
Are just states of human mind |
|
And when you drift to sleep |
|
Your mind belongs to me |
|
The art of dreaming becomes real |
|
Nothing is what it seems |
|
So surreal |
|
This world I lay before your eyes |
|
Another brush stroke |
|
Another nail to the lid |
|
You can try to scream |
|
But no one hears |
|
My canvas is black |
|
And stained with tears |
|
This world I lay before your eyes |
|
Another brush stroke |
|
Another nail to the lid |
|
You can try to scream |
|
But no one hears |
|
My canvas is black |
|
And stained with tears |
|
For light and darkness |
|
Are just states of human mind |
|
And when you drift to sleep |
|
Your mind belongs to me |
|
The art of dreaming becomes real |
|
Nothing is what it seems |
|
So surreal |
