Masterpiece Lyrics
All the stupid lies and the stupid games
Left a vacancy in this picture frame
A prisoner by my own hands
'Cause if I can't have me then no one can
I need to heal what I inflict
But I'll burn that bridge when I get to it
As I play roulette with a broken gun
I confess these sins with a sharp and spiteful tongue
So how do I apologize
And put the tears back in your eyes?
When every canvas that I paint
Is a masterpiece made of my mistakes
Outlined in guilt, my portrait stares
In a gallery where the walls lie bare
As I modernize my antique ways
True colors can't escape the brush of fate
So how do I apologize
And put the tears back in your eyes?
On every canvas that I paint
Is a masterpiece made of my mistakes
Illustrate all my pain
And set it all ablaze
Burn
And set it all ablaze
So how do I apologize
And put the tears back in your eyes?
When every canvas that I paint
Is a masterpiece of my mistakes
And in the light of my demise
I see my failures in your eyes
Every canvas that I paint
Is a masterpiece made of my mistakes
Left a vacancy in this picture frame
A prisoner by my own hands
'Cause if I can't have me then no one can
But I'll burn that bridge when I get to it
As I play roulette with a broken gun
I confess these sins with a sharp and spiteful tongue
And put the tears back in your eyes?
When every canvas that I paint
Is a masterpiece made of my mistakes
In a gallery where the walls lie bare
As I modernize my antique ways
True colors can't escape the brush of fate
And put the tears back in your eyes?
On every canvas that I paint
Is a masterpiece made of my mistakes
And set it all ablaze
Burn
And set it all ablaze
And put the tears back in your eyes?
When every canvas that I paint
Is a masterpiece of my mistakes
I see my failures in your eyes
Every canvas that I paint
Is a masterpiece made of my mistakes

Vocalist Chris Motionless said of this track, "'Masterpiece' is a song which I feel embodies the raw and brutally honest nature of what makes 'Motionless In White'. It took me many years to fully recognize that these are the types of songs that truly are the lifeblood of the relationship between the band and our fans. There is something really powerful and magical in being able to write a song that not only expresses your own deepest emotions and feelings, but to write something that may express the feelings of those who find it hard to articulate their own at times. It is on another level of special. In my own experience as a listener, these types of songs have always offered comfort amidst the pain, and Masterpiece is my way of returning that energy back to the universe for others to potentially find and carry with them."
I still hurt, princess. I wish I could say these words to you. I will always love you. I'm so sorry baby. I'm so sorry.
