Portrait - Mariah Carey

Can't drink, can't drug, can't drown 'em away Can't sleep, can't think, can't find an escape From these dark, dark thoughts in my mind Can't drink, can't drug, can't drown 'em away Can't sleep, can't think, can't find an escape From these dark, dark thoughts in my mind There's a heavy on this mind There's a weight behind these eyes What if I, what if I can't stop the rising tide? Above the undertow, do you see me down below? A sinking stone, wondering how much deeper I can go Can't drink, can't drug, can't drown 'em away Can't sleep, can't think, can't find an escape From these dark, dark thoughts in my mind, oh Oh my head, my head, my head is a prison No one ever visits It's just you and me 'til the end, the end Waiting out my sentence If I find an exit, will you still follow me? A hundred stories high What would it be like to be free from this parasite inside of me? And at my funeral, would anybody show? No pall to bear, just a coffin sitting all alone Can't drink, can't drug, can't drown 'em away Can't sleep, can't think, can't find an escape From these dark, dark thoughts in my mind, oh My head, my head, my head is a prison No one ever visits It's just you and me 'til the end, the end Waiting out my sentence If I find an exit, will you still follow me? To kill what I create To keep the wolves at bay You know I've tried a million times but they still find a way to cage me Can't drink, can't drug, can't drown 'em away Can't sleep, can't think, can't find an escape From these dark, dark thoughts These dark, dark thoughts Oh my head, my head, my head is a prison No one ever visits It's just you and me 'til the end ('til the end), the end Waiting out my sentence If I find an exit, will you still follow me?

You were wearing white under a sunset Jokingly smoked a candy cigarette You smiled at me when you rolled your eyes Something bout' you has me mesmerised Kissed your freckles in the summer We got in trouble, but it was fun We'd oversleep every Saturday You always seem to get your way She's got long hair, nice hips in a sundress Kissed me on the cheek with her Coca-Cola chapstick Her skin's sun-kissed, God blessed the girl That was really good She's sweeter than the honey in her tea More peaceful than the branch of an olive tree She loves to lounge in her underwear She somehow makes friends everywhere She's the only woman in my dreams She's the start of all my memories She's the perfect portrait of young love And I'm just her lucky tag along She's got long hair, nice hips in a sundress Kissed me on the cheek with her Coca-Cola chapstick Her skin's sun-kissed, God blessed the girl And it may sound strange But she makes Every ounce of pain feel like it wasn't in vain One thing's for sure, God blessed the girl She's got long hair, nice hips in a sundress Kissed me on the cheek with her Coca-Cola chapstick Her skin's sun-kissed, God blessed the girl

And we both crossed at our hearts But we were hoping to die too soon I still rememeber in that yearbook you told the truth You knew when I crashed into you That we were young and we were coloring over it Holy water still holds my breath 'Cause I can't let go of the words you wrote Amity follow me to the flowers in the attic That I couldn't hold together (wo-oh) I hope you sleep forever Another shot in the dark Maybe we'll drop all the kerosene off at your feet And dance under the fire And all your friends, all your friends say they want into heaven But what if you got there first (But what if you got there) Holy water still holds my breath 'Cause I can't let go of the words you wrote Amity follow me to the flowers in the attic That I couldn't hold together (wo-oh) I hope you sleep forever I hope you sleep forever So when the cops get the call I hope you sleep forever (Holy water still holds my) Holy water still holds my breath 'Cause I can't let go of the words you wrote Amity follow me to the flowers in the attic That I couldn't hold together (wo-oh) I hope you sleep forever I hope you sleep forever So when the cops get the call I hope you sleep forever

I hate that S-Class Benz that you're so damn proud of You hate my truck 'cause you can't climb out of it And I'll admit it girl, I said it and I meant it Yeah, I loved you for a minute, but we dance sure different It's been a week since you went and hit the highway And made it clear that I oughta have it my way But my way looks a whole lot better With just my truck in the driveway And I hope you find you a high rollin' High rise view that you don't get in the country And I hope you find you a guy with some dollar sign eyes And a pocket full of money And it ain't that I want you to think that I hate every single little thing you do But when you say that I ain't ever gonna find nobody just like you I hope that's true You got drunk one night and told me I was white trash I was high, but I guess I wasn't high class Enough to show up with you on your own We were never gonna be two kids on a farm And I hope you find you a high rollin' High rise view that you don't get in the country And I hope you find you a guy with some dollar sign eyes And a pocket full of money And it ain't that I want you to think that I hate every single little thing you do But when you say that I ain't ever gonna find nobody just like you I hope that's true I could sit here bitter and bitchin' And wishin' things woulda gone different But that don't sound nothin' like me at all Honey, who the hell am I kiddin'? And I hope you find you a high rolling High rise view that you don't get in the country And I hope you find you a guy with some dollar sign eyes And a pocket full of money And it ain't that I want you to think that I hate every single little thing you do But when you say that I ain't ever gonna find nobody just like you I hope that's true Yeah, I hope that's true Oh, I hope that's true Oh, I hope that's true
