If I were an artist I could paint you red, like the passion you feel It might not be colorful, but at least it'd be real And I could paint you green, like the envy you know, when you're all alone at night With nowhere to go And I could paint you grey, to show how you're empty To show how you don't care So the world can all see And I could paint you clear, Id make you graceful Id make you beautiful Cuz that's what you are And I could paint you taupe Because they say that its soothing But youre like a drug to me That could use some abusing And I could paint you gold To show you're immortal Would that make you honest? Would it make you sincere? Scarlet and Clover, all the things we talked about Violet and green and the world in between The grey skies in your blue eyes, broken hearts are all that you know I could be clear Yeah you could see through me And I could be beautiful Just to be yours Just to be. I could paint you clear, Id make you graceful Id make you beautiful Cuz that's what you are And I could be clear, and I could be graceful I swear Id be colorful just to be yours If I were an artist, then I could be yours

The Sun Will Shine Again: I don’t believe I’ve ever seen you before but you remind me of this girl I used to know chock full of innocence with a bitter smile to change the world but let your shoulders rest tonight, you’re just one little girl and you’ll see better days, your better days are coming soon don't give up, no don't give in look over your shoulder the sun will shine again don't break don't let them see you cry the sun will shine again rain clouds come pouring down there’s no time for parades shelters coming soon I swear you'll have some place to stay happiness means nothing when you feel it all alone without you rainbows turn to gray and home just isn’t home but I’ll see better days, my better days are coming soon.... don't give up, no don't give in look over your shoulder the sun will shine again don't break don't let them see you cry the sun will shine again they're dragging you up they’re letting you down, making you laugh while they're making you frown the worlds so confusing but that’s how it goes open your eyes don't let them close don't give up, no don't give in look over your shoulder the sun will shine again don't break don't let them see you cry the sun will shine again

I could feel it in my bones, when she called me on the phone take a breathe and swallow hard, cause her bodies not alone. who am I deciding who can live or die it isn't right it isn't right Im so sorry all I ever said was goodbye take a walk to clear my mind, but you're with me all the time I'll never know what you would be and it tears me up inside Does life start with a soul or with a heart? I'll never know I'll never know Im so sorry all I ever said was goodbye So if you can hear me now, I'll do my best to make you proud I'm sure you're somewhere in the stars, So Id better sing this loud Im so sorry all I ever said was goodbye

about

Jake Coco Los Angeles, California

I am going to stick to the ever-so cliche answer of "everything". It is the truth though, every second of my life goes into every song that I write.
