In the bigger picture I've been painted out Cracks in the earth blacken the sea No canvas is reserved for me Look up close and try to see In every stroke lies past alone Too close to home Cutting too close to bone The ink has dried and words reveal Too close to home Cutting too close to the bone It's too easy to admit defeat You aren't a child fighting in a war Son please don't tell me that this is bored Tear your things out from the earth Long departed we're so short sighted Too close to home Cutting too close to bone The ink has dried and words reveal Too close to home Cutting too close to the bone It's too easy to admit defeat Too close to home Cutting too close to bone The ink has dried and words reveal Too close to home Cutting too close to the bone It's too easy to admit defeat
