Dario Durastanti - portrait of uhhhhh

Paint me a portrait
One that defines your current mood
The smile is obvious
But the eyes hide a secret like the moon

Paint me a story
One that is true
In which true color is hidden
Behind the thin line of youth

Paint a poppy in your pocket
A symbol of the poison I lost you to
Got a fix for your depression
Or blame it on me as you usually do

Paint me a story
One that is true
In which I am the hero
Or, in your case, the fool

Don't forget to paint the scars
A symbol of your sacrifice for art
Just a little more acrylic on the wrist dear
So I can feel them in the dark, crystal clear.

Black and white, or color, you don't care
Signs of your indifference woven through your hair
Paint a golden halo above your head
But you're not fooling me, you need venetian red
No you're not fooling me, the boy that you misled

Paint me a story
One that is true
In which true color is hidden
Behind the thin line of youth
Paint me a story
One that is true
In which I am the hero
Or, in your case, the fool.
