Lost In A Portrait Lyrics

Cover art for Lost In A Portrait lyrics by Trapt

ok i have to say this is a prayer/conversation with the Lord. just eliminate the lines and u can see some hidden dialogue within the song.

from the first line and the Lord says "i analyze everything. i know what u mean" meaning that the Lord is telling him he always knows his true intentions for everything he does

next line "i answer by questioning" "(your) all that i need" meaning sometimes he questions things church leader, etc tell him, but the Lord is the only thing he needs.

the Lord speaks the next 3 lines and says "surrender, i want you." "i want you to see" "see all the sides, all the faces inside of me"

Writer: "i'm not perfect, but that's all" Lord: "i see your lost" Writer: "this can't be everything" Lord: "I see that" Writer: "my canvas is incomplete, your color's everything to me. And my canvas will set me free"

the next series of lines starts with a confession by the writer and ends with the Lord asking him to surrender and let him into the writers life.

Writer: "my outline is solid, and made up of crime" Lord: "the things that you say just burn in my eyes" Lord: "surrender, i want you. find some comfort in the spaces between the lines"

then for the remaining choruses repeat the sequences above.

and if you're wondering? no i am not some religious lunatic, i just like to do a deep analysis of lyrics.
