In a heartrending duet of longing and regret, two lovers find themselves ensnared in the throes of separation and self-destruction. Each verse is a poignant confession from their isolated worlds, where empty liaisons and substance abuse serve as poor substitutes for the genuine connection they've lost. As they grapple with their choices, photographs become painful reminders of happier times, too agonizing to face amidst their current despair. The song navigates through their emotional turmoil as they yearn for reconciliation, ultimately realizing that only a return to each other's arms might restore the brightness to their dimmed lives. "Picture" masterfully captures the ache of love lost and the hopeful whisper of redemption through its raw, melodic storytelling.
Picture
Lyrics
Living my life in a slow hell
Different girl every night at the hotel
I ain't seen the sunshine in three damn days
Been fueling up on cocaine and whisky
I wish I had a good girl to miss me
Lord, I wonder if I'll ever change my ways
I put your picture away
Sat down and cried today
I can't look at you while I'm lying next to her
I put your picture away
Sat down and cried today
I can't look at you while I'm lying next to her
I called you last night in the hotel
Everyone knows, but they won't tell
But their half-hearted smiles tell me something just ain't right
I've been waiting on you for a long time
Fueling up on heartaches and cheap wine
I ain't heard from you in three damn nights
I put your picture away
I wonder where you've been
I can't look at you while I'm lyin' next to him
I put your picture away
I wonder where you've been
I can't look at you while I'm lyin' next to him
I saw you yesterday with an old friend
It was the same old same, how have you been?
Since you've been gone, my world's been dark and grey
You reminded me of brighter days
I hoped you were coming home to stay
I was headed to church
I was off to drink you away
I thought about you for a long time
Can't seem to get you off my mind
I can't understand why we're living life this way
I found your picture today
I swear I'll change my ways
I just called to say I want you to come back home
I found your picture today
I swear I'll change my ways
I just called to say I want you to come back home
I just called to say I love you
Come back home
