They Provide The Paint For The Picture-perfect Masterpiece That You Will Paint On The Insides Of Your Eyelids Lyrics - Streetlight Manifesto

There is a man with no face and a name I don't remember 

Lives in a house in the middle of the woods 

And he said once 'son, don't you laugh out loud 

For they are listening, oh they are listening 

Oh, you've got to be strong 

Oh, you've got to keep holding on 

Now it's just a matter of time' 

They provide the paint for the picture perfect masterpiece that you will 

Paint on the insides of your eyelids 

Can you possibly see anything you want to see? 

No, hell no, there's nothing wrong with the way I see 

And he wanted to be a soldier in the next great war 

He wanted to kill and fight and maim but not be told what he was fighting for 

And that's the way it's going to have to be, my friend 

And that's the way it's going to have to be, my friend

I passed a man on the corner in the city yesterday 

Singing 'Yada yada yada and tomorrow it'll end' 

And I never thought I'd live to see another sunny day 

But I'm here and I fear I'll be here until the end 

So watch your mouth or you're going to make a grave mistake 

Hold your tongue or you're going to catch a bullet in the head 

Watch your mouth or you're going to make a grave mistake 

Don't die for anything less than the best of life 

The things they said went to your head 

But you never tried to understand 

What they take, you will never take back 

Cuz they take what they take what they can because they can from you 

You follow me and you follow me but you never ask why 

And I wonder what you're under could this be another piece of the 

I don't know, I just do what they say 

Because they say what to do in a matter of fact way 

Photos 

But don't stop because you might get burned 

And you might just learn to stand on your own two feet 

And I think that it's neat how you learn to repeat 

Everything that you hear in the street so well 

Learn to repeat everything that you hear so well 

You learn to repeat everything that you hear so well 

And everyone was resting because they thought it was the end 

And even if it wasn't, they decided to pretend 

And somewhere in the distance I could hear him whispering 

'You can fight all you want, they will win in the end, so' 

Sometimes in the evening when I'm lying in my bed 

I am taken to the forest to that isolated shed 

And I wake with is words resonating in my head 

And I can't stop thinking about the gist of what he said 

So watch your mouth or you're going to make a grave mistake 

Hold your tongue or you're going to catch a bullet in the head 

Watch your mouth or you're going to make a grave mistake 

Don't die for anything less than the best of, 

everyone settles for the rest, not the best of 

I will die for no less than the best of life
