Faceless Lyrics

(Nameless, faceless
I keep them warm at night)

[Verse]
My dear, your bedside manner's gotten worse
Since the day when every step you took was the one too far
Now up against again your pretty mug
I tell your face that (I lied)
I can't hold you up, but I can't watch you drop
Tell your brain that (I lied)
All our pretty paintings washed away

[Chorus]
But when I paint this day I'm gonna bathe you in light
Charging up the midway, daring anyone to stare
When I paint this day I'm gonna paint you on fire

(Nameless, faceless
I keep them warm at night)

[Verse]
I'm gonna wrap you up in paper and twine
And send you back express to the time
When your happy ending was only waiting for a sign from you Tell your face that (I lied)
I can't look away, I know I'm not supposed to stare
Tell your brain that (I lied)
All our pretty paintings washed away

[Chorus]
But when I paint this day I'm gonna bathe you in light
Charging up the midway, daring anyone to stare
When I paint this day I'm gonna paint you on fire

[Bridge]
When I paint this day I'm dressing you in white
Riding up the midway and spoiling for a fight
Like you do, like you do

[Chorus]
But when I paint this day I'm gonna bathe you in light
Charging up the midway, daring anyone to stare
When I paint this day I'm gonna paint you on fire
