Modest World
(2x)
Venting within the pen and pretending to lift the pain
Sending lyrics and ending the fury within the lane
Hopin' that I can scope and then rise with sunshine
I'm focusin', eyes closed, I'm finally done trying
A somber heart beats blood and seeks for the candle
Walkin' in the dark, startin' to think all the damage
The modest painter, tracin' this unraveled imagery
The heart in the prodigy playing piano swiftly
The instrument of feelings left bleeding, chest heaving
Had to address the reason I'm seeing the step receding
There's a blessed noose tied around the neck of the person
Who decides that the rest of his life ain't worth it
The painter wants the impossible to be picture perfect
Dark state cause melancholy in her to feel worthless
The option of a paintbrush saves up denial
The jottin' of the paint funds the weight of her smile
(2x)
Venting within the pen and pretending to lift the pain
Sending lyrics and ending the fury within the lane
Hopin' that I can scope and then rise with sunshine
I'm focusin', eyes closed, I'm finally done trying
Nothing is sweeter than the scent of a beautiful woman
Lovin' eagerly, the test of her mutual comin'
There's the zest, best sex, but the pleasure and pain
Causes man to consent to cement in his grave
Straight confusion in his mind, life illuminated fine
But the sun stops when the clouds block the beauty's shine
Dark passages that the man is trapped under
Wishin' that the hard absence of happiness stumbles
The car accident caused the man to switch mind-set
And look for the beauty in life, wished for life's treasure
I prayed you would scoop up the tile
Finally, he trades in the noose for his smile
(2x)
Venting within the pen and pretending to lift the pain
Sending lyrics and ending the fury within the lane
Hopin' that I can scope and then rise with sunshine
I'm focusin', eyes closed, I'm finally done trying
(Laughter)
