Red Face

Piece of history
Piece of obsession
Piece of mystery
Leaves so many questions
Piece of history
Piece of obsession
Piece of misery
Rotten confession

It's a curse and it's a bless
I'm a genius but no one cares
My workshop's full of paintings
Nobody will be paying for
The paint was all over the place
You walked in and I saw your face
All of my works should be erased
My new muse will take their place

My ancient soul is disfigured with the wish of a pure perfection
My ugly affection

I've spent an eternity
Staring at your face
I've started losing sanity
Haunted by your gaze
I'll never get over you
You won't end up in the frame
And I'll never know the fame

I won't be famous in the world
By this thought I'm decomposed
How many times I'll be refused
Before I end up in the noose?
And then rot in the grave
With the unfinished portrait
Its shades won't stay the same

My ancient soul is disfigured with the wish of a pure perfection
My rotten confession

I've spent an eternity
Staring at your face
I've started losing sanity
Haunted by your gaze
I'll never get over you
You won't end up in the frame
And I'll never know the fame

Red face covered in my blood
Doesn't it give chills, oh God
As it's hanging on the wall?
I gave my life to make it work
Red face covered in my blood
Doesn't it give chills, oh God
As it's hanging on the wall?
I gave my life to make it work

Piece of history
Piece of obsession
Piece of mystery
Leaves so many questions
Piece of misery
Buried and precious
For some an epiphany
For some Devil's actions

I've spent an eternity
Staring at your face
I've started losing sanity
Haunted by your gaze
I'll never get over you
And now that I'm in the grave
I'm basking in the dark of the fame

Red face covered in my blood
Doesn't it give chills, oh God
As it's hanging on the wall?
I gave my life to make it work
