Portrait of an Artist by Ibrahim Nasir Lyrics
[Verse 1]
When all was said and done
He held her closely
As if ruins of a garden feels
And when the moment passed
Not for them cowards was her kindly written coldest art
[Pre-Chorus 1]
And thy world finds
A hope down the road
But not us
Well, although there's something 'bout
The chaos that molded her
[Chorus]
For I have known about the winter
Oh, that fairy something
Where I couldn't breath
And I have known when she would stumble
I've known when she was broken
And I couldn't believe
[Verse 2]
That I was told and told
If you find a moment to be brave
You better hold it on
And when the nights felt cold
I was a coward with my hardly written winter words
[Pre-Chorus 2]
But I will find
A hope down the road
But not her
Well, although there's something 'bout
The chaos that molded her
[Chorus]
For I have known about the winter
Oh, that fairy something
Where I couldn't breath
And I have known when she would stumble
I've known when she was broken
And I couldn't believe
When all was said and done
He held her closely
As if ruins of a garden feels
And when the moment passed
Not for them cowards was her kindly written coldest art
[Pre-Chorus 1]
And thy world finds
A hope down the road
But not us
Well, although there's something 'bout
The chaos that molded her
[Chorus]
For I have known about the winter
Oh, that fairy something
Where I couldn't breath
And I have known when she would stumble
I've known when she was broken
And I couldn't believe
[Verse 2]
That I was told and told
If you find a moment to be brave
You better hold it on
And when the nights felt cold
I was a coward with my hardly written winter words
[Pre-Chorus 2]
But I will find
A hope down the road
But not her
Well, although there's something 'bout
The chaos that molded her
[Chorus]
For I have known about the winter
Oh, that fairy something
Where I couldn't breath
And I have known when she would stumble
I've known when she was broken
And I couldn't believe
