Like Portraits On Walls Lyrics
this guilt hangs around your neck like portraits on walls
i swear i can't recall the last time i saw you smile, it's been a while
run away
cause this makes no sense
with hollow hands kissed by hollow lips
run away
cause you've seen him cry
you've cut apart his heart with your knife
hollow, hollow, hollow
just like you're pretty, pretty, now breath
now i've said too much again
with hollow lips touching hollow hands
over time this will end
oh, is this wrong
we knew this all along
sometimes my life has got me down
but guilt beats hate and you turn it all around
sometimes my life has got me down
but guilt beats hate, now you've won
i swear i can't recall the last time i saw you smile, it's been a while
cause this makes no sense
with hollow hands kissed by hollow lips
run away
cause you've seen him cry
you've cut apart his heart with your knife
hollow, hollow, hollow
just like you're pretty, pretty, now breath
with hollow lips touching hollow hands
over time this will end
oh, is this wrong
we knew this all along
but guilt beats hate and you turn it all around
sometimes my life has got me down
but guilt beats hate, now you've won

Best benton falls song ever. so much emotion. the highlight of this album. it\'s painful. brutal. loves it.
My God. Such a beautifully emotional song. Everything works so perfectly, and the words are absolutely amazing.
"with hollow lips touching hollow hands over time this will end"
"sometimes my life has got me down but guilt beats hate and you turn it all around"
I used to turn this song up loud and just put it on repeat when I needed a good cry.
