Lyrics
Mirrors never tell the truth,
His skin is just a lie.
Every look, a careful carving,
Youth preserved in motionless grace.
Time moves past, yet never takes him,
He remains where shadows fold.
Hands pass through, but leave no trace.
Light bends wrong, but tells no tale.
Names are spoken, but don’t remain.
In the room where canvas watches,
Lines dissolve, yet hold him still.
He is pleading, but the painter
Traced his silence into form.
Glass reflects, but shows no past.
Footsteps echo, but leave no dust.
Breath is taken, but never given.
