A Portrait Of The Artist Lyrics

Aiden

I watched as the black sky parted back
Through fields of tar and thread
A tourniquet of lace and dialect
Our ceremony

I fall as the comfort rushes in
No terrifying dreams
I'll shed my skin for you

Have I broken my addiction dead inside?
Have I broken my addiction dead inside?
A picture of my genocide

Paralyze the light fell from your eyes
My hope is faded gray
Our wickedness we share
This ceremony

I watched as the antique sky turned black
Through fields of heroin
I'll shed my skin for you

Have I broken my addiction dead inside?
Have I broken my addiction dead inside?
Have I broken my addiction dead inside?
Have I broken my addiction dead inside?
A portrait of my genocide

A portrait of the artist
A portrait of a young man
To sing this song in silence is grand

My addiction dead inside
Broken genocide
Addiction dead inside
Broken my genocide
