Portrait Of An Apology

Portrait Of An Apology - Jars Of Clay

Look what I've done this picture I've painted

It looks like my heart or what still remains

Convinced of the weight

Your interpretations are not what I see I wish they could be

And I remember it much redder

And I remember it much brighter

Can you stay for a while

Try to imagine this

Could you be for a while

I can't remember it

Could you fall for a while

Yes I can't escape from this

Try to explain the way that the frame

Doesn't quite fit the image or surround the edge

It stands on display and what do you see

Behold all the new gray what's become of the old me

'Cause I remember it much redder

And I remember it much brighter

Can you stay for a while

Try to imagine this

Could you be for a while

Yes I can't remember it

Could you fall for a while

Yes I can't escape from this

Can you stay for a while

Calling crying

For a while

Ashamed what I am not

For a while

Really failing falling

For a while

Into this cage and I can't escape

For a while

No I can't escape

For a while

No I can't

So look what I've done the picture I've painted

Doesn't quite fit or surround the edge

But I remember it much redder

Try to imagine this

Could you be for a while

Yes I can't remember it

Could you fall for a while

I can't escape from this

Can you stay for a while

I can't escape

Could you be for a while

For a while

For a while

For a while

I can't and I can't

Can you stay for a while

Could you be for a while

Could you fall for a while

I can't I can't escape

Can you stay for a while

Could you be for a while

Could you fall for a while

Can you be

Could you stay
