Description

This was the last song I wrote for this album (as part of a 14 songs in 28 days songwriting challenge). So the title relates quite literally to that, but the song is also about the perfectionist artist who is reluctant to share his work ... not wanting others to make criticisms or see imperfections.

Lyrics

the longer that I keep my shutters all closed the longer it is before anyone knows that there's a dead body still rotting inside that there's just a ghost of who used to reside the nearer I come to embracing the facts, the more against me the deck seems to be stacked and all my attempts to ameliorate must just come across as too little, too late I guess that i'm done, and ready, to be judged too late to remake my legacy now I guess that I'm done, incomplete, and begrudged too much already has been written down I'm a harsh critic, especially of me, And that's why I don't want the world to see the fruits of my labor, then privy they'd be to the the failings of my unfinished masterpiece as long as I keep looking up ahead my optimism's saved by second chances but when I'm turned to face the path I've tread i'll have to listen to the crowd's consensus how could my life's work ever be complete how could my art work ever be released? once I give it over for you to consume I give up the hope it will ever improve
