Lyrics If I Were an Artist - Jake Coco

If I Were an Artist

And I could paint you red
Like the passion you feel
It might not be colorful
But atleast it’d be real
And I can paint you green
Like the envy you know
When you’re all alone and I
With nowhere to go
And I can paint you grey
To show how you’re empty
To show how you don’t care
So the world can all see
And I can paint you clear
I’d make you graceful
I’d make you beautiful
Cause that’s what you are
And I can paint you taupe
Because they say that it’s soothing
But you’re like a drug to me
And I could use some abusing
And I can paint you gold
To show you’re a mourner
That’d make you honest
Make you sincere
And I can paint you clear
I’d make you graceful
I’d make you beautiful
Cause that’s what you are
Ohh oh
No starting and hovering
All the things we talked about
Bothered and breathed
And the world in between
Gray skies, blue eyes
Broken and I’m drowning you know
And I can paint you clear
I’d make you graceful
I’d make you beautiful
Cause that’s what you are
And I could be clear
Yeah you could see through me
But I could be beautiful
Just to be yours
Just to be
And I could paint you clear
I’d make you graceful
I’d make you beautiful
Cause that’s what you are
I could be clear
I could be graceful
I swear I’d be colorful
Just to be yours
If I would have been honest
Then I would be yours
