Canvas

I know you love to feel
Like the world’s coming at your throat
So lay it all on me
Cry wolf; there’s no one home
You hate yourself
Blame it on the hand that you’ve been dealt
Lay it all on me
Cry, wolf. You’re all alone

If my body washed up at your feet
Would that broken mind say you’re dreaming?
Take every memory straight into the alleyway
And beat it down ‘til you forget my face
If I hit black ice on the interstate
Could you live with what you’ve said?
Would it bring a little clarity
Or hate fueled therapy
I guess it’s all the same in the end

I know it’s all my fault
You’re just a fragile innocent angel
Lay it all on me
Cry wolf if it helps you run
Paint that picture
Fill the canvas with altered truth
Lay it all on me
Cry wolf ‘til you think you’ve won

If my body washed up at your feet
Would that broken mind say you’re dreaming?
Take every memory straight into the alleyway
And beat it down ‘til you forget my face
If I hit black ice on the interstate
Could you live with what you’ve said?
Would it bring a little clarity
Or hate fueled therapy
I guess it’s all the same in the end
