The Portrait - Que Sera

reinforced by what you believe

And who made it your responsibility

to defend the defenseless?

How was your pride that day?

the look on your face as they took it all away?

Paint the portrait of selfless innocence

The truth lies underneath what was said

As what’s covered up bleeds through

you’ll be lying through your teeth

when all eyes are on you

You blinded yourself from seeing the truth

Entitlement is a tired look

Weaving the tales of these four young crooks

who stripped the pride right from the love of your life

just to watch it explode in front of his eyes

Paint the portrait of selfless innocence

The truth lies underneath what was said

As what’s covered up bleeds through

you’ll be lying through your teeth

when all eyes are on you

The sound of your own voice is what soothes you

despite being off key and time.
