Sketches Lyrics

I've seen paintings that are real lives
And I've seen real lives that are just sketches
I can say because I've been inside of them

And the deeper you go, the smaller you get
You're a line on a road, and a point on a pen
The deeper you go

Thought my love for you was all time
Turns out all that time I never loved you
Some of us can make a sketch of love to fall in
And I did

But love makes you grow
So it never quite fit
That the deeper I'd go, the smaller I'd get
The deeper I'd go

Went out walking just to see the sunrise
Stayed the same size, turned pink and orange
I can say 'cause I've been painting myself back
