You Painted Yourself In

You paint the floor back up in the corner

And when the floor is shiny and wet

You have no choice but to rise over

The painted trap that you have set

So place your foot up on the air

And climb upon that invisible stair

And when you rise into the wind

Remember that's exactly the place

You painted yourself in

You painted yourself in

You have no choice except but to fly

So fly on invisible wings

Until you reach your secret home

And when you lay your weary head down

Dream a dream of the suffering ward

You painted yourself in

You painted yourself in

You have no choice except but to fly so fly on

Invisible light in your lover's heart

Will show the way through the fiery furnace

And what burns up is torn away

And what remains is a beautiful promise

You painted yourself in

You painted yourself in

You have no choice except but to fly
