[Verse 1]
As that reflective surface
In the end, turns towards you
What will you behold upon
It's glass and silver skin?
[Verse 2]
Five of Swords
Choose your battles wisely
Five of Swords
As the card reversed, it became your demise
[Pre-Chorus]
The self-imposed dealer of blame
The unaware procreator of shame
[Chorus]
Paint your colors upon me
They will stay like the water
That already seeped through my fingers
Like water between already worn-down rocks
Oil on water, oil on water
[Verse 3]
Five of Swords
Choose your battles wisely
Five of Swords
As the card reversed, it became your demise
[Bridge]
Self-made judge and juror
Master of conflict and executioner
Self-turned fool and jester
By your benighted sense of the I
[Chorus]
Paint your colors upon me
They will stay like the water
That already seeped through my fingers
Like water between already worn-down rocks
Oil on water, oil on water
