blue jean overalls Lyrics

She's covered in blue jean overalls that she painted

A work of art that speaks in every language

She paints to tell a story she never could

She starts with the pain that she still holds

That she covers with color 'til no one knows

You don't see the tears running down her face

She'll never tell you she's been drinking in the dark

How she falls asleep on the floor when life's too hard

How no one will ever know cause she plays her part

She'll never tell you that she sees pain where you see art

She pours her morning coffee like it's her last

Then pours her heart on a canvas she can't take it back

She leaves an empty space for you, just in case

She starts with the hatred that she holds

That she covers with color 'til no one knows

You don't see the tears running down her face

She'll never tell you she's been drinking in the dark

How she falls asleep on the floor when life's too hard

How no one will ever know cause she plays her part

She'll never tell you that she sees pain

Yellows turn to orange, then red, to the color of red wine blood

Blues like the skies from the morning light to the shadows left untouched

She'll never tell you she's been drinking in the dark

How she falls asleep on the floor when life's too hard

How no one will ever know cause she plays her part

She'll never tell you that she sees pain where you see art
