Pictured It Lyrics - John Reuben

(chorus) 

Have you ever felt something you couldnt explain 

No definition no name just a feeling 

No definition no name 

I looked at her she looked back at me 

Her face looked different than I pictured it 

And then there was me analyzing life more than I was living 

Anything possible good Ill destroy before the chance was ever given 

See if I never have anything Ill never have to lose anything 

But then again if I never had anything worth losing 

I guess I lost everything either way 

You could say pain will become a result from both 

So actually Im giving in to the very thing that I fear the most 

Losing it all everything completely unaware that a fear of failure 

Was the one thing that was taking me there 

Fear of life fear of love fear of man failure to relate 

How I and God and His voice to me would even begin to translate 

So I wait to escape this condition of rationalizing my own destruction 

But I keep on listening to voices that dont deserve my discussion 

(chorus) 

Shes an artist alright 

Capable of the most abstract stuff imaginable 

And its made personal for me 

See she uses my mind as the canvas to create her manipulated perspectives on life 

So Im the only one that can even see what I see 

Until the art hits the heart and begins to take an outward expression 

Kind of like an involuntary confession of the soul 

And whos in control 

And how many minds have been painted by the hands of crafty irrationality 

And have different paintings of reality hanging on the walls in a fictional gallery 

(chorus) 

Actions speak louder than words 

And Ive come to find that Ive been building on a design 

That could only be found in my mind 

Blind to the force behind what caused my accuracy to be tainted 

Cuz my mind was smart enough to manipulate itself 

But not smart enough to figure out it was being manipulated 

(chorus)
