Some picture-perfect families are far from perfect in reality, and the children in those families may have to hide their true identities or having an opinion about how they want to live their lives.

lyrics

[Verse 1]
A perfect home. A perfect life.
A family portrait? It looks real nice.
A broken heart. A shattered dream.
Reality is never how it seems.

[Pre-chorus]
Descending deeper in the dark.
Ascends to kill him like a shark.
Pricks a needle in his vein.
Calms his nerves, numbs his brain.

[Verse 2]
A perfect smile, with lifeless eyes.
He’s all broken up inside.
Tormented soul. A silent scream.
The past will never be redeemed.

[Pre-chorus]
Descending deeper in the dark.
Ascends to kill him like a shark.
Pricks a needle in his vein.
Calms his nerves, numbs his brain.

[Chorus]
Picture speaks a thousand words, but silences screams within.
Broken mirror is what he sees, but no one knows his sin.
And no one cares about him.

[Solo]

[Bridge]
A place where he can rest his mind.
A time when he could just rewind.
No matter where he lays his head,
all he wants is to be dead.

[Pre-chorus]
Descending deeper in the dark.
Ascends to kill him like a shark.
Pricks a needle in his vein.
Calms his nerves, numbs his brain.

[Chorus]
Picture speaks a thousand words, but silences screams within.
Broken mirror is what he sees, but no one knows his sin.
And no one cares about him.

No one cares about him x 3
No one cares!

Piman Sly Bangkok, Thailand

'Piman Sly' is a rock duo with hints of metal, stoner, grunge, hard rock and blues based in Bangkok.

The word ‘Piman’ came from mixing the members’ names – Py and Iman – together. The Thai idiom ‘Pi-man Sa-laai’ means ‘shattered heaven’ or ‘Paradise Lost’ that is usually used to describe a broken home, a dysfunctional family, an unrealized dream – which aligns with what their music is about. ... more
