Words and Music by Ala Ghawas

Hey love,

You’re drowning in your colors

Don’t you wanna have some rest?

You’re searching for yourself in me, I know that, don’t resist

Hey love,

I spent years on your bench

Can’t you feel my weary chest?

I’m tired of loving you

I’m tired of showing you my best

Because I’m burning in a gone down deal

Yearning for your art to heal and faking what I feel

Paint me a heart right now for real

Hey love,

Stop drawing my face

It’s growing ugly and old

Dig my heart

Don’t judge me from your painting board

Paint me a heart, though I know it’s gonna be fake

Paint me a heart, for someone else to break (you never loved me anyway)

Paint me a heart, with any color, any shape, any heartbeat rate 

Because I’m burning in a gone down deal

Yearning for your art to heal and faking what I feel

Paint me a heart right now for real
