When the brush finally
stops
I'm already done
The brush is drawing again and I'm in the zone
I'm inspired by you if you didn't take me seriously
I didn't give up but I forgive
and by being myself I'm probably enough
A palette full of colours, let's see what can I still do
early bird can catch the worm but the second mouse gets the cheese
I took my time
Mistook, learnt and travelled
years went by when I sketched but I came and took my place
So many left this dying city
Z-train* like the ferryman of Tuonela**
But I stayed and kept my songs fresh
believing that tears will turn to laughter tomorrow
I paint my painting full and over
I have a perfectly imperfect style
Even if I was going to my last place today
I would be incomplete but a masterpiece
When the brush finally
stops
I'm already done
What did I get
Were there only colours left on the canvas
or frames full of gold
when I paint my world
But now I see, there's no painting like this
I have frames full of gold
when I paint my world
Girl, nothing that beautiful should cry for attention
but fast life with its temptations is before you like a mountain
On the way to the top, in a horrible hurry
don't you know that you look good when you climb
Just let that makeup drip and under that a sculpture will be revealed
let your guards down, here a girl is allowed to miss her step
And you can choose, can the glitter upper class rule you
Are you the prisoner of the outer pressure or free like Jannika***
Everyone sculpts their own portraits here
But even the most amazing one is in someone's eyes a bad picture of us
And feeling insufficient the majority lives a lie
even with filters and photoshops isn't good enough anymore
With our own will we climb on the pedestal
without realising that we're loved and not our status
Life is strikes from the chisel of an artist
Woman, there's no masterpiece like you
When the brush finally
stops
I'm already done
What did I get
Were there only colours left on the canvas
or frames full of gold
when I paint my world
But now I see, there's no painting like this
I have frames full of gold
when I paint my world
