From the painter To the painted. The colours are lined up, but only leave stains on the side. You, the prisoner. You, the warden. Praying on 'almost' is keeping us unified. Soaked to the skin as your pride hits the ground, Shaking your shoulders with every sound. But it's only courage calling, And every nerve wants me to run out of its arms. How many long years Holding onto your senses? And hooked on the stories from windows against copper skies. Kick the cup of hatred Into the corner, For in the soft light, I can see hope in your eyes. And under the dust there are chords from before, And under my fingers the melody's raw. It's courage that keeps calling, And every nerve wants me to run into your arms.

Courage
From the painter To the painted. The colours are lined up, but only leave stains on the side. You, the prisoner. You, the warden. Praying on 'almost' is keeping us unified. Soaked to the skin as your pride hits the ground, Shaking your shoulders with every sound. But it's only courage calling, And every nerve wants me to run out of its arms. How many long years Holding onto your senses? And hooked on the stories from windows against copper skies. Kick the cup of hatred Into the corner, For in the soft light, I can see hope in your eyes. And under the dust there are chords from before, And under my fingers the melody's raw. It's courage that keeps calling, And every nerve wants me to run into your arms.
