Letra de Ink Spots on a Paintwork

I'm not tryna sound smart I just wanna know Why so many rotten hearts? Tell me, was it ever a gift to glow? Why can't we all be Henry Tanner paintings? (Maybe beauty dies with timing) Once we reach the beauty Of an artwork by Schjerfbeck We let it go to our heads Why are we like that? (Why are we like that?) We're just ink spots splattered across a paintwork Have you ever thought this is how life works? (It ain't workin', but maybe it could) But my strength hasn't stood I'll end it when I strike the matchbook We're just ink spots splattered across a paintwork Have you ever thought this is how life works? (It ain't workin', but maybe it could) But my strength hasn't stood I'll end it when I strike the matchbook Is it worth to restart? Something tells me to go Everything feels so hard Tell me, which advice should I follow? Why can't we all be Henry Tanner paintings? (Maybe beauty dies with timing) Once we reach the beauty Of an artwork by Schjerfbeck We let it go to our heads Why are we like that? (Why are we like that?) (Why are we like that?) We're just ink spots splattered across a paintwork Have you ever thought this is how life works? (It ain't workin', but maybe it could) But my strength hasn't stood I'll end it when I strike the matchbook We're just ink spots splattered across a paintwork Have you ever thought this is how life works? (It ain't workin', but maybe it could) But my strength hasn't stood I'll end it when I strike the matchbook Please, I need asylum in Elysium I've seen it all, right from my birth To the downfall of the Earth I'm just an ink spot in this paintwork Work, paintwork Ink spots on a paintwork Ink spots on a paintwork Please, I need asylum in Elysium
