Lyrics The Portrait - Que Sera

The Portrait

reinforced by what you believe
And who made it your responsibility
to defend the defenseless?
How was your pride that day?
the look on your face as they took it all away?
Paint the portrait of selfless innocence
The truth lies underneath what was said
As what’s covered up bleeds through
you’ll be lying through your teeth
when all eyes are on you
You blinded yourself from seeing the truth
Entitlement is a tired look
Weaving the tales of these four young crooks
who stripped the pride right from the love of your life
just to watch it explode in front of his eyes
Paint the portrait of selfless innocence
The truth lies underneath what was said
As what’s covered up bleeds through
you’ll be lying through your teeth
when all eyes are on you
The sound of your own voice is what soothes you
despite being off key and time.
