Brushstrokes
The more subtle the detail
The more they take a shape of their own
Well, you're a promising painting
Next to the horrors that are waiting at home
A fresh coat
Two creatures of comfort
And we'd be lying if we thought this would look all right
We can wait
We can trade this all for shabbier nights
Similar brushstrokes
From a distance, this image seems beautiful to you and I
The gruesome truth takes moving closer
To be noticed by the naked eye
I'm told it's a fresh coat
For two creatures of comfort
And we'd be lying if we thought this would make it right
Perspective waits
It can cover up our lonelier nights
Brushstrokes
We've shown our true colors
Museum quality
A work of art that's on display
A framed idea in shocking detail
Local critics would say
You see, I'm talking about a fresh coat
For two creatures of comfort
And we'd be lying if we thought this would look all right
We'll wait
We can brush this off as quieter nights
We can brush this off as quieter nights
We can brush this off as quieter nights
We can brush this off as quieter nights
