King Krule - Portrait In Black And Blue Lyrics
Spastic gyrations
And abbreviated bathing suits
See I suit you
Cause I could be you
And I could show you true
A portrayal in black and blue
[Chorus:]
I'm not painting this lie anymore
Since it was all I had to adore of you
And all I had to say
Girl you keep running away
Well time never gave me a chance
I shoulda been there
Took my soul to wear
Left a hole to despair
See what I'm going through
You never even knew
That's nothing on my plate
Trapped in a lizard state
My mind's at the gate
Looking for an escape
[Chorus x2]

King Krule Portrait In Black And Blue Comments
you are my new love!
damnation
I remember being drunk off my shit throwing up all night, worst state I’ve been in, this song was playing through my head on repeat. Will never forget that
Need changes...
So fucking timeless
this track still makes my body sink into the ground
there is no thing more beautiful than this in entire world
Spastic gyrations
And abbreviated bathing suits
See I suit you
'Cause I could be you
And I could show you true
Till the cold runs through and through
A portrayal in black and blue
I'm not painting this lie anymore
Since it was all I had to adore of you
And all I had to say
Girl you keep running away
Well time never gave me a chance
I shoulda been there
Well you laid me bare
Took my soul to wear
Left a hole to despair
See what I'm going through
You never even knew
That's nothing on my plate
Trapped in a lizard state
My mind's at the gate
Looking for an escape
Well I ain't painting this lie anymore
Since it was all I had to adore of you
And all I have to say
Girl
Well I'm not painting this lie anymore
And I'm dark and I'm in awe of you
And all you had to say
It never hit me the same, boy
just heard this track off a fresh vinyl LP
never gonna forget this sound
how much did you get it for and where?
EP but yes it's amazing.
king krule is probably the only pitchfork snack pack band that with stood the test of time for me and still on rotation
Not a band
Forster it's a band nigga u think he makes the instruments with his mouth check his npr show
ur a narc
@LAteen your ill informed
@Forster incorrect
A ginger king that is krule yet graceful and beautiful.
see what im goin froo
portrait in white and gold?
Angry react
sointensive
Simply in love with his music
dude go and listen to his song cementality and tell me he has no substance.
brain leave me be, can't you see that these eyes are shut
I love coming to this video and seeing this comment lol
which comment?
It was one about him blowing up lol
Why do you think that?
duuuude srsly
he really is the king
is he drunk and/or high?...great music tho
so raw, why am i crying?
His voice...im in love.
I know how you feel.
Nail on the head dude.. Nail on the head.
i think this song is about a girl he feel for a lot more than she did. He painted a perfect picture of her which made it worse. But she wasn't interested but she couldn't tell him as she probably liked the attention 'all you had to say it never hit me the same boy.. anybody else have an different interpretation?
CoolKidOx spot on
the fact that this kid is my age makes me question what i'm doing with my life.. I took 3 separate naps today
I feel this so hard, I come back to his music every winter..
Portrait in nap and blue.
Napping is learning. Think of lil babies and how much they need to learn. Lov u
fucking genius man
i'm pretty big on this guy's guitar melodies.
There is serious substance in this look up the lyrics before before you comment dude..
It's one fucking word man. Wouldn't expect you to actually consider the rest of the lyrics, or maybe the music that this kid, same age as me, has crafted wonderfully.
Anyway, you're an idiot.
So the fact that one line in the song is cliche has ruined the rest of King's entire discography of beautifully crafted emotional songs? Many great artists have used cliche to great effect.
go away
love it..glad i keep coming back to stuff, i would of missed out
Well time never gave me a chance I shoulda been there oh you ladybird to my soul to my world left a hole to despair. See what I'm going through you never even knew that's nothing on my plate, trapped in a lizard state, minds at the gate, looking for an escape. I ain't painting this lie any more since it was all I had to adore of you, and all I have to say is Giiirl. I'm not painting this lie any more and I'm dark and I'm in awe of you and all you had to say is, you never hear me the same boy...
spastic gyration in abbreviated bathing suits see I suit you cause I could be you and i could show you true to the cold runs through and through a portrait of you in black and blue. I ain't painting this lie any more, since it was all I had to adore of you, and all I have to say is girl you keep running away.
i dont think he going to have a problem staying underground...he sound like kid cudi when kid cudi trys to sing..so i mean he could have mainstream appeal if he wants..well im sure he can sing better than cudi too...but cool song..not going to say im completely sold..i usually determine that from a tignly spine chilling sensation..lol
@Mhuber1979 you mispelled incredible
i fucking hated this dudes voice when i first heard him but the instrumental and voice grew on me
DjSkyfaze I agree
Bringing back that british drawwwwlll
Anybody got lyrics?
terrible.
lovely.
Is there a instrumental version of the EP? The sounds are beautiful but i just can't get use to the voice
I wouldn't say his voice sucks, I actually like it. It's really interesting to listen to, so out of the ordinary. Can't wait to see where he goes in the future :)
I NEED a tab for this song!
I really like his guitar sounds, however, his voice is really... really... bad...
How is he only seventeen
cant wait to see what he is going to come out with next.
@thesmellyfish9000 Not to be "that guy", but King Krule/Zoo Kid is actually just one person. The others are just his backing band :)
His voice sounds like the voice you would make when you're trying to mock Randy Newman
Tonisso90sfresh sent me, so good thing I say!:)
Keep it Blazing BuD!:)
peaceouTy
TAMMpON
I really don't want larger, more mainstream record companies getting their hand on this kid. His music is undeniably unique and true to what he wants to create I'm sure. I don't ever want someone this musically innovative to lose any artistic control.
@bluecurls00 Is that a threat? :)
Jesus christ this is amazing..
I can't wait to hear what this kid has in store for us in the future. This is great. He's hit on a really nice guitar sound in his recordings.
