Lyrics

I know that you're an artist

I acknowledge that you are an artist

But you're the hardest one to deal with

You are challenging and difficult to handle

Everything that you conceal

Everything you hide or keep secret

Is revealed on your canvas

Is expressed and exposed on your artistic canvas


You find all of your ugly meanings

You discover negative meanings in things I find beautiful

In all of the things I find beautiful

Contrast between your interpretation and my perception

Do you see the fall is coming

Notices the arrival of a challenging or difficult time

Come, I'm falling into you

Invites to embrace the challenges together


You perceive all of these things

You understand aspects that I would not have grasped

I'd never have known

The depth of perception and insight

Love, will you turn off the lights

Asks to turn off the metaphorical lights of awareness or scrutiny

We're already home

Despite challenges, we are already in a place of comfort


You painted me in pastel

You portrayed me in soft, light colors

Colors that don't tell of any boldness

Colors that don't convey boldness or strength

That's the way you love to see me

Describes the preferred way of being seen – delicate and weak

So delicate, so weak, so little purpose

Implies a perceived lack of clear purpose


But your eyes are drawn of charcoal

Your eyes, in contrast, are depicted as dark and imperfect

They're black, they're so cold, they're so imperfect

The imperfections and coldness in your viewpoint

Because they see a sleeping world

Because your eyes see a world that is asleep

Where waking isn't worth it

Where the act of waking up is deemed unworthy


You perceive all of these things

You comprehend things beyond my awareness

I'd never have known

A repetition emphasizing the depth of understanding

Love, will you turn off the lights

Reiterates the request to 'turn off the lights,' symbolizing avoiding awareness

We're already home

We are already in a familiar and comfortable place
