Clown Paint

Like a second-rate horror movie
When you think it's safe, it's about to go down
And there's nothing to lean on
Nothing but the memories of fondest goodbyes
And I'm trying to get my head straight
Twisting left and right but I can't get it right
So am I missing the crucial piece of the puzzle?
Am I ever gonna sleep at night?

Whenever I try I arrive at conclusions that I don't like
Portrait love hearts and dot-to-dot lines
Spelling out the road map to my demise

Every time I have to compromise
It's like running through quick-fix-sand
Chasing shadows you might find
And sometimes it's more like slowly dying
Or falling on your sword for taking no-one's good advice

But I will try this time
But I will cry this time
I won't lie this time
I'll put on a smile
I'll put on a smile
I'll put on a smile
I'll put on a smile
