“Spotless”

50″x30″ Acrylic on Canvas

This is an original work based on the song “Spotless” by Grammy nominated country music artist Zach Bryan featuring The Lumineers.

Lyrics by Zach Bryan.

Turn on the TV, act like you don’t see me

Tell me everything is ok

My mother is a saint and told me if I wait

Everything meant to be will stay

Well, I ain’t a believer in people pleasing neither

Fucking telephones have ruined this place

Met a man in New York City, told me humans ain’t as pretty

As a perfect day we’ll chase for all the days

 

I ain’t spotless, neither is you

For once in my life, I’m gonna see it through

If you want spotless, I’ll always loose

I don’t want love, lover, I want the truth

 

People die a thousand times to get to who they are

You were prayin’ to the heavens on a late train car

Your heart knows deeper seasons than my eyes ever will

I’m a self-destructive landslide if you wanna be the hill

 

I ain’t spotless, neither is you

For once in my life, I’m gonna see it through

If you want spotless, I’ll always loose

I don’t want love, lover, I want the truth

 

Remember jumpin in the pool when we was fully clothed in August

We were soakin’, chokin’, smokin’ in my old shitty apartment

Then they cut off all the lights ’cause the bills were never paid

We were stealing all the power from the neighbors on vacation

 

I ain’t spotless, neither is you

For once in my life, I’m gonna see it through

If you want spotless, I’ll always loose

You gave me  love, lover, you gave me the truth

 

I was alone

You were bettin’ on a loser you were callin’ my bluff

Holding one another, is it never enough?

You were right there with me

 

I can’t stop this, neither can you

For once in my life, I’m down to see it through

If you want spotless, I’ll always lose

You gave me your love, lover, you gave me the truth
