John Reuben - I Pictured It lyrics

Have you ever felt something
You couldn't explain?
No definition, no name, just a feeling?
No definition, no name

(I looked at her, she looked back at me)
Her face looked different, I say
(I looked at her, she looked back at me)
Her face looked different than I, I
(I looked at her, she looked back at me)
Her face looked different than I pictured
(I looked at her, she looked back at me)
Her face looked different than I pictured it

Then there was me
Analyzing life more than I was living
Anything possibly good
I'll destroy before the chance was ever given
See if I never have anything
I'll never have to lose anything
But then again


If I never had anything worth losing
I guess I lost everything, either way
You could say pain will become
A result from both so actually
I'm giving in to the very thing
That I fear the most
Losing it all, everything
Completely unaware that a fear of failure
Was the one thing that was taking me there
Fear of life, fear of love, fear of man
Failure to relate
How I and God and His voice to
Me would even begin to translate
So I wait to escape
This condition of rationalizing
My own destruction
But, I keep on listening to voices
That don't deserve my discussion

(I looked at her, she looked back at me)
Her face looked different than I pictured it
(I looked at her, she looked back at me)
Her face looked different than I pictured it
(I looked at her, she looked back at me)
Her face looked different than I pictured it
(I looked at her, she looked back at me)
Her face looked different than I pictured it
(I looked at her, she looked back at me)
Have you ever felt something
You couldn't explain?
(I looked at her, she looked back at me)
No definition, no name, just a feeling?
No definition, no name

She's an artist, alright
Capable of some of the
Most abstract stuff imaginable
And it's made personal for me
See, she uses my mind as the canvas
To create her manipulated
Perspectives on life
So I'm the only one that can
Even see what I see, ha
Until the art hit's the heart and
Begins to take an outward expression
Kind of like an involuntary confession of
The soul and who's in control
And how many minds have been painted
By the hands of crafty irrationality?
And have different paintings of
Reality hanging on
The walls in a fictional gallery?

(I looked at her, she looked back at me)
Her face looked different than I pictured it
(I looked at her, she looked back at me)
Her face looked different than I pictured it
(I looked at her, she looked back at me)
Her face looked different than I pictured it
(I looked at her, she looked back at me)
Her face looked different than I pictured it
(I looked at her, she looked back at me)
Have you ever felt something
You couldn't explain?
(I looked at her, she looked back at me)
No definition, no name, just a feeling?
No definition, no name
(I looked at her, she looked back at me)
(I looked at her, she looked back at me)

Actions speak louder than words
And I've come to find
That I've been building on a design
That could only be found in my mind
Blind to the force behind what caused
My accuracy to be tainted
Cause my mind was smart
Enough to manipulate it'self
But not smart enough to figure
Out it was being manipulated

(I looked at her, she looked back at me)
Her face looked different than I pictured it
(I looked at her, she looked back at me)
Her face looked different than I pictured it
(I looked at her, she looked back at me)
Things look different than I pictured it
(I looked at her, she looked back at me)
Things look different than I pictured it

That's how I pictured it
That's how I pictured it
That's how I pictured it
That's how I pictured it
That's how I pictured it
That's how I pictured it
That's how I pictured it
That's how I pictured it
That's how I pictured it

Have you ever felt something
You couldn't explain?
No definition, no name, just a feeling?
No definition, no name
Have you ever felt something
You couldn't explain?
No definition, no name, just a feeling?
No definition, no name
Have you ever felt something
You couldn't explain?
No definition, no name, just a feeling?
No definition, no name
Have you ever felt something
You couldn't explain?
No definition, no name, just a feeling?
No definition, no name
