Paint is forgivable...
Unlike you
Paint will cover up your mistakes, your scars, and your pain...
You put mine on full display
Paint will create something beautiful, something you'll want to keep...
You never planned on keeping me
Paint me like those portraits...you know, the ones I said remind me of you and me.
Paint me for the world, a sight people travel far to see
Paint me a picture of what the world could be, something better and more beautiful, not just for us to see
Paint the story of us, the one where the ending left us talking.
Paint the way you speak to me, the way our emotions change as words are exchanged...
Paint...don't just draw or sketch, paintings last longer, too bad we didn't
