[00:16.92] I know that you're an artist,
[00:31.47] but you're the hardest one to deal with.
[00:32.43] Everything that you conceal
[00:33.15] is revealed on your canvas.
[00:35.85] You find all of your ugly meanings
[00:37.29] in all of the things I find beautiful.
[00:39.75] Do you see the fall is coming?
[00:40.62] Come, I'm falling into you.
[00:41.94] You perceive all of these things
[00:47.04] I'd never have known.
[00:48.45] Love, will you turn off the lights?
[00:52.29] we're already home.
[00:52.83] You painted me in pastel,
[00:54.27] colors that don't tell of any boldness.
[00:56.73] That's the way you'd love to see me:
[00:58.08] so delicate, so weak, so little purpose.
[00:59.28] But your eyes are drawn of charcoal
[01:01.83] they're black, they're so cold, they're so imperfect.
[01:03.27] Because they see a sleeping world,
[01:04.95] where waking isn't worth it.
[01:05.67] You perceive all of these things
[01:06.33] that I'd never have known.
[01:07.80] Love, will you turn off the lights?
[01:34.74] We're already home
