Lyrics
You are such a hypocrite, so I'm leavin for a bit
You are hypocritical, so I'm leaving temporarily
Because I am blessed with soul, something you would never know
I possess a soul, a depth you cannot understand
When you're this close, it gets hot before it's cold
In proximity, emotions intensify and fluctuate
And I will never know you're gone
I won't realize you're absent
Whatever's possible becomes impossible
What seems possible turns impossible
Woah
Expression of emotion, possibly frustration or realization
This is atonement
Acknowledgment of wrongdoing and seeking redemption
You're the painting
Referring to someone as a work of art
You're the pain that I feel
The person is the source of emotional pain
Follow the trail with some bad politics
Following a path marked by dishonest politics
If they never know I'm gone, they will never notice it
If my absence goes unnoticed, there's no consequence
You looked so tame, I saw you in the rear view mirror
Describing someone's appearance as controlled or subdued
You looked so challenged when I caught up, and this is what I do
Despite challenges, I pursue what I believe is right
Sometimes you still think I am crazy when I'm sane
Others perceive me as crazy despite being rational
And you will never know I'm gone
You won't realize I've left
Don't ever get too close, cause I'm not good up close
Keep a distance, as I'm not comfortable up close
Woah
Repetition of emotional expression
This is atonement
Reiterating the theme of seeking redemption
You're the painting
Comparing someone to a painting causing emotional pain
You're the pain that I feel
Emphasizing the emotional pain caused by the person
Follow the trail with some bad politics
Continuing on a path marked by dishonest politics
If they never know I'm gone, they will never notice it
If my absence goes unnoticed, there's no consequence (repeated)
No, don't get upset, cause you never played fair
Expressing dissatisfaction with unfair behavior
Please, just remember me when I am not around
A plea to be remembered in absence
And I can't forget her lips, so red
Memories of someone's captivating lips
Go sit back down, cause I can't go back until we just finish
Unable to move forward until a situation is resolved
And they will never know were gone
Others won't realize we've departed
The best has yet to come
Better times are yet to come
The best has yet to come
Repeated anticipation of a better future
Woah
Repetition of emotional expression
This is atonement
Reiterating the theme of seeking redemption
You're the painting
Comparing someone to a painting causing emotional pain
You're the pain that I feel
Emphasizing the emotional pain caused by the person
Follow the trail with some bad politics
Continuing on a path marked by dishonest politics
If they never know I'm gone, they will never notice it
If my absence goes unnoticed, there's no consequence (repeated)
No, don't get upset, cause you never played fair
Expressing dissatisfaction with unfair behavior (repeated)
Please, just remember me when I am not around for the taking
A plea to be remembered in absence (repeated)
For the taking
Emphasizing being taken for granted or advantage
