lyrics

She saw me in a gallery of paintings and old tapestries by artists who left their mark of beauty in the world.
But my eyes were on the ground. I thought, for sure, she would be bound to see the ugliness up front.
I can't hide it with a brush.

I look so ugly with my heart on my sleeve. It's painted with sickness and depression interweaved. I look so ugly with my heart on my sleeve, and it hurts so much, nail polish won't cover it up.

By happenstance our eyes were drawn to the liliy pads and blue carnations floating in a pond.
Like I was hung up on the wall, her eyes began to turn and fall, but right away she walked away and then she gasped, "That poor boy don't stand a chance."
