[Verse 1] Headlines flicker Like a fever in the room Coffee’s gone cold But my hands still move Red on my fingers Can’t tell anger from fear I drag it across the canvas Till something feels clear [Chorus] Turbulent times Turbulent paintings Every brushstroke’s breaking and bracing I don’t have words for what this is So I spill it I spill it Mixed emotions running the edges All these colors crashing like questions If I can’t fix the world out there I’ll tear it up here (on this canvas) [Verse 2] Blue runs sideways Like a river out of place I paint a crooked sun With a worried face Lines keep crossing Like all the thoughts in my head Hope in the corner Fighting all the dread [Chorus] Turbulent times Turbulent paintings Every brushstroke’s breaking and bracing I don’t have words for what this is So I spill it I spill it Mixed emotions running the edges All these colors crashing like questions If I can’t fix the world out there I’ll tear it up here (on this canvas) [Bridge] I stand back Heart still racing Is this panic or is it praying? Is this chaos or confession? Can a picture hold a question? (yeah) [Chorus] Turbulent times Turbulent paintings Every brushstroke’s breaking and bracing I don’t have words for what this is So I spill it I spill it Mixed emotions running the edges All these colors crashing like questions If I can’t fix the world out there I’ll tear it up here Till the mess starts making sense On this canvas
