Now You Get the Picture
There’s something wrong…
Something’s missing…
I long to know the answers to my prayers
I’m sorry for being those “disobeyers”
There’s something wrong with this picture
You make me feel slightly unsure
Our upcoming future is quite a blur
Quite a blur
There’s a flawless tune to your song
Do you get the picture? X4
There’s nothing wrong with you
Maybe it’s the things that you do
Do you get the clue? You get the clue?
I’m sorry that you’re feeling awfully blue
Terribly blue…that’s how I feel – nothin’ new!
Sucks to be blue
Sucks to live with that condition
It sucks to be that way too
The truth will set you free they say
Honesty hurts and someone has to mess up your day
Mess up your day
As if you’re nothing, but dirt on the ground
But, you get the picture, right?
You get the picture tonight
Bite the bullet (Oooh x5)
Bite the bullet
See right through it
See right through my pain
And I’m still waitin’ for your rain
To fall down on me gracefully
(Let me be…set me free…x2)
You get the picture
You’re positively sure
Our mysterious future is still unknown to me
Unknown to me
There’s a tranquil tune to your song
Do you get the picture? X4
There’s nothing wrong with you
Maybe it’s the things that you do
Do you get the clue? You get the clue?
I’m sorry that you’re feeling awfully blue
Terribly blue…that’s how I feel – nothin’ new!
Sucks to be blue
Sucks to live with that condition
It sucks to be that way too
The truth will set you free they say
Well, I believe the grass is wilder on the other side
There’s too many weeds growing there – let’s abide
By His side for a change…don’t drift away or subside
From His maze of marvelous miracles
Honesty hurts and someone has to mess up your day
Mess up your day
As if you’re nothing, but dirt on the ground
But, you get the picture, right?
You get the picture tonight
Good thing you got the picture tonight!
You’re melting in shame…
This shame has no good label…no good name…
I need to win this game…
Driven away from the disdain
Drive away the freezing rain
Priceless determination drenches my body with sweat
I must be tired, but vigilant like a security guard I bet
You get the picture? x2
Did you figure out the riddle?
I hope you get the picture someday!
I should have known you were not the kind of person
Who accepts change easily!!
You’re scorching ice and I’m freezing fire
Take my advice and you’ll soon find your desire
I’m not a liar…this passion will never tire
Do you get the picture now?
