Portrait of an Apology Songtext

Look what I′ve done
This picture I've painted
It looks like my heart
Or what still remains
Convinced of the weight
Your interpretations are not what I see
I wish they could be

But I remember it much redder
And I remember it much brighter

(Can you stay for a while?)
Tried to imagine this
(Could you leave for a while?)
And I can′t remember it
(Could you fall for a while?)
'Cause I can't escape from this


Tried to explain
The way that the frame doesn′t quite fit the image
Or surround the edge
Stands on display
And what do you see?
Behold all the new grey
What′s become of the old me?

'Cause I remember it much redder
And I remember it much brighter

(Can you stay for a while?)
Tried to imagine this
(Could you leave for a while?)
′Cause I can't remember it
(Could you fall for a while?)
′Cause I can't escape from this
(Can you stay for a while?)

Groveling, crying, ashamed (for a while)
For what I have done (for a while)
For me failing, falling (for a while)
Into this cage
And I can′t escape (for a while)
No, I can't escape (for a while)
No, I can't


So look what I′ve done
Picture I′ve painted
Doesn't quite fit
Or surround the edge

But I remember it much redder

(Can you stay for a while?)
Tried to imagine this
(Could you leave for a while?)
′Cause I can't remember it
(Could you fall for a while?)
And I can′t escape from this
(Can you stay for a while?)
'Cause I can′t escape
(Could you leave for a while?)

(For a while)
(For a while)
(For a while)
I can't, I can't
(Can you stay?)
(For a while)
(Could you leave?)
(For a while)
(Could you fall away?)
No, I can′t, I can′t escape
(Can you stay?)
(For a while)
(Could you leave?)
(For a while)
(Could you fall away?)
(For a while)
Can you leave? (Stay)
Could you stay?
(Can you stay?)
(Could you leave?)
(Could you fall away?)
