Portraits

from Outside, the Great Drought by Hyena

/

lyrics

I’m working on a self-portrait,
but my limbs are being torn apart, yeah my heart is being pulled at every angle.
You can reach me at any time of the day…

So, I’m loosing focus,
of what is best – for me.
What’s best for everybody else,
and what is left – for me
to define my self

portrait!

I’m searching for an answer.
I’m searching desperately for all the answers.
And I’m doing my best, I’m doing my best, I’m doing the best that I can
so we can all come out of this is one whole piece!
Oh please!

But what can I say?
If I ever have kids, the television’s gonna teach them to count with casualties
and that’s no way to learn –
how to count on the ones who
promised never to hurt, but is seems like they’re all out to hurt you,
like they packed up their things to desert you,
and I’m sorry but I’m just trying to figure out what I can do to save my own
sanity!
and finish the final touches to a portrait that clearly has no sense of clarity –
Darling, I’mmmm –

Sorry!!!

But what can I say?
What can I say?
NOTHIN’.

…at all. at all. at all.
