if I told you what I wanted would you hold it against me / if I told you the whole truth would you turn and run / if I told you the secrets would you hold them in question / if I told you what I wanted would you turn and run what I really feel could be seen as plain and selfish / when distorted by the lens of society in fear / what I really feel could be seen as plain and selfish until you look beyond the words and know what's truly here // the artist paints a picture and presents it as honest / it's her interpretation / the moment that she feels / subjective quotes arrive from the critical q. public / if she told me what she wanted would I turn and run what I really feel could be seen as plain and selfish / when distorted by the lens of a society in fear / what I really feel could be seen as plain and selfish until you look beyond the words and know what's truly here // the message came in clear / you didn't hear me certain and mistook what I said / and began to draw the shade / if I told you what I wanted would you hold it against me / when I told you the whole truth I saw you turn and run // but what I really feel could be seen as plain and selfish / when distorted by the lens of society in fear // but what I really feel could be seen as plain and selfish / until you look beyond the words and know what's really here // what I truly feel could be seen as plain and selfish / when distorted by the lens of society in fear / what I really feel could be seen as plain and selfish until you look beyond the words and know what's truly here / what's truly here
