Look what I've done
This picture I've painted
It looks like my heart
Or what still remains

Convinced of the weight
Your interpretations
Are not what I see
I wish they could be

I remember it much redder
I remember it much brighter

Chorus:

Can you stay for a while
Try to imagine this
Could you be for a while
I can't remember it
Could you fall for a while
I can't escape from this

I'll try to explain
The way that the frame
Doesn't quite fit the image
Or surround the edge

It stands on display
What do you see?
Behold all the new grey
What's become of the old me

I remember it much redder
I remember it much brighter

[Chorus]

Calling, crying, ashamed of what I am not
Really failing, falling into this cage and I can't escape
I can't escape

Look what I've done
This picture I've painted
Doesn't quite fit
Or surround the edge
I remember it much redder

[Chorus]

I can't escape, I can't escape, I can't escape

Other Jars Of Clay song Lyrics
  • Goodbye Good Night
    "A flower for your vanity, a penny for your thoughts
    About the world's insanity and how we've gotten lost
    Strike up the band to play a song as we go waltzing by
    And fake a smile as we all say goodbye..."
  • Unforgetful You
    "Unforgetful You
    I never minded calling You a King
    If that meant that I could count on You
    To give me everything..."
  • Collide
    "Open up your box of sunshine
    And smile as confetti comes raining down on you
    You feel a lot like the good guy, but do you know why?
    Everything's so blue..."
  • No One Loves Me Like You
    "Collapsing was much softer
    Still falling always hurt
    Only after sensing your love
    For always ever burned..."
  • Famous Last Words
    "You say you heard every word, but I watched you turn away
    Your eyes grew colder than winter
    "Love is so intrusive," I thought I heard you say
    And laugh so unconvincingly..."
  • Sad Clown
    "You say how's the weather, so i look out the window
    to brighten my soul, but i can't control the rain
    that keeps falling
    Smile on the outside that never comes in..."
  • Hand
    "I'm here waiting for something new to break my heart
    So callous laden, I can't feel a thing at all
    Will You catch my fall?
    From lost and not found, to run and not hide..."
  • Im Alright
    "It was the fear of God that led me to you
    And it's the fear of you that takes getting used to
    I've never been one to hang my heart on a thread
    But you spun me around and you loved me instead..."
