Mural Lyrics & Chords By Scorngrain

Pressure got too intense inside
your picture-perfect shell.
Didn't believe no more
it's like that with others too.
Tore this facade apart
and ripped the curtains down.
Forced to please them both,
world you grew into.
Mural...
of lifelong trauma.
Family portrait painted with blood
Domestic violence and homocide.
With no doubt, with no remorse.
An eye for an eye justifies the cause.
Cry of the victim painted
to the walls with one shade.
Keep the colors running wild
with dull razorblade.
Mural...
of lifelong trauma.
Family portrait painted with blood
You dressed their contorted faces
into smile with braces and length of wire.
Cut the lids of dried out eyes
to gaze your masterpiece with wonder.
Instead of opening the floodgates
you took the future in your own hands.
Disregarded, manipulated
and touched by your very own blood.
Made daddy wear church suit
and sit next to mom on her Sunday dress.
Convincing yourself
there was a time they were proud of you.
Mural...
of lifelong trauma.
Family portrait painted with blood
Mural...
