Lyrics A Painted Smile - Will Knox

Can't you see I'm in decay
Like a pitchfork in the rain
Rusted red, my metal stained
I'm cracking up like peeling paint

Hold me close
To your
To your
To your heart

Can't you see I'm in denial
Like a clown that paints his smile
This head's a junkyard gone to parts
Just a milk tooth left to rot

Hold me close
To your
To your
To your heart

Can't you see my memory fade
Like a washboard scrubbing stains
My tongue has twisted into knots
My words are stories with no plots

Hold me close
To your
To your
To your heart

Can't you see me fall apart
Like a burning house of cards
Clubs and diamonds in array
The spades are digging their own graves

Hold me close
To you
To your
To your heart
