Lyrics:
I made the bed with flowery pillows
Each memorabilia has its own shelf
Collection cards and cute Sanrio's
Easy maintenance even for myself
I still pile up the mail hidden in a trunk
But each day I do the dishes, I don't flinch
Now you'll never find me even slightly drunk
Even though inside I barely changed from an inch
The epiphany I had was the day I decided
To paint that portrait of an unknown woman
Imagining someone old, alone, strong-headed
Wonderful at living life large, without a man
Freeing myself from the mandatory friends
The marriage, children, career, it never ends
Cutting the straitjacket of beauty standards
Embracing age and wrinkles as the ultimate rewards
A life well spent under a skin well worn out
Witnessing the world as this ever changing frame
Pursuing my art without the longing for fame
A witch in the woods, going on and about
I painted that portrait of an unknown woman
Like some lay the pigments of clear blue skies
I envisioned myself as this unknown woman
Endless bearings from the prayers in my cries
From the grey silhouette of a teenage ghost
To this portrait with a face I still have to fill
The freedom of choice is what I want the most
Carving my own path to the strength of my will
No one can't take from me, my own work of art
When the canvas is my soul, it can't be torn apart
Already stronger than anyone could paint me
Through the daily struggles of keeping myself free
To some, it may be cringe flowery pillows
To me it's England gardens, by the lake, the willows
To some, it may be the easy daily tasks
To me it's the overbearing work of ever changing masks
Whatever their notion of "adult" may look like
I'll never pander to prefabricated morals
Why pursue buying a car, when all you need is a bike ?
I'll stay childish and ancient, with my florals
The epiphany I had was the day I decided
To paint that portrait of an unknown woman
Imagining someone old, alone, strong-headed
Wonderful at living life large, without a man
Freeing myself from the mandatory friends
The marriage, children, career, it never ends
Cutting the straitjacket of beauty standards
Embracing age and wrinkles as the ultimate rewards
A life well spent under a skin well worn out
Witnessing the world as this ever changing frame
Pursuing my art without the longing for fame
A witch in the woods, going on and about
I'll allow myself to be,
That one portrait of an unknown woman
Among many other anonymous women
Among so many, wonderful other anonymous women
Oh, Oh, the amazing portrait
Portrait of an unknown woman
The endless colors, the infinite potential
Oh, Oh, the unfinished portrait
Portrait of an unknown woman
Oh, Oh,
Becoming what I paint in my mind
Oh, Oh,
Portrait of an unknown woman
Oh, Oh,
Painting my future without a plan
Oh, Oh,
Portrait of an unknown woman
