The painter paints away the day As he paints his life away Will he rise in judgement's eyes or fall What a humble life he lives He never sees the price they give Another part of his soul upon a wall Like a lonely soldier faces Foreign shores and empty spaces Such as he-who strokes to free his soul Isolation steeped in sadness Mellowed by the fears of madness There he stands as he commands control Deeper than the eye can see Another man's philosophy While he lives the price they give is small Like a lonely soldier faces Foreign shores and empty spaces Such as he-who strokes to free his soul Isolation steeped in sadness Mellowed by the fears of madness There he stands as he commands control When he dies and on that day The sky's as high a price they'll pay While he lives the price they give is small
