Portrait Lyrics - Matchbook Romance

Love 

Bring me the head of jealousy 

His curse is the poison on her lips 

A love as certain as a sinking ship 

Unstoppable 

This isn't a dream 

This is what you are 

And I'll take the blame 

But that won't heal your scars 

Look 

Look a little closer now, shut off 

You should have known this wasn't a truce 

Keep taking your cheapshots 

'Til I'm black, blue 

You should have known better then to change your mind 

Tears won't tame your misery 

They're the ones that say your heart is just a beat 

You're just keepin' time 

This isn't a game 

Who do you think you are? 

I'll take the blame 

But that won't heal your scars 

Look 

Look a little closer now, shut off 

You should have known this wasn't a truce 

Keep taking your cheapshots 

'Til I'm black, blue 

Look 

Look a little closer now, shut off 

You should have known this wasn't a truce 

Keep taking your cheapshots 

Look 

Look a little closer now, shut off 

You should have known this wasn't a truce 

Keep taking your cheapshots 

'Til I'm black and blue
