lyrics

i'm so sick of this scene in this act in this play
i'm just the scenery but i always seem to stand in the way,
mark up the sidewalk with colored chalk
so you can hop everywhere instead of always having to take a walk.
take the shortcut but it leaves a rut,
both parties are found partying but she's the one called a slut
we're all found guilty but refuse to take the blame
and we're too weak to be unique and too scared to face cleansing rain.
i'll face it, i'll face it, so here i go alone
but i'll make it yeah i'll make it without you i am not...
now i know what it means to be alone and read
with that idealistic brush that the writer he hands to me
I'm painting everything i feel observe and see
like if its watercolor then call me the Joseph Turner
of word imagery.
so lets dance around the festering splinters left behind
being issues of why we choose to engage
in conversations avoiding confrontations filled with all the reasons
of why we decide to hate
someone's differences that make them who they are
as we justify tearing their world down with their
state of mind and state of being but we're not seeing that every pair of
eyes comes in a different shape
our chance for happiness will come in a different form
shape and way
one day i hope to wake and find that i been dreaming
this whole time
or maybe this is just a play in which we act
or maybe we forgot just where we're from or we forgot
just where we're at
but if i wake will i remember you
‘cause i'd tell all my friends of this girl i knew
a dream come true
doo doo doo chorus...
(Kissing without intentions of true love, is by far the worst deceit.
You think you're the one receiving, but it's your soul you cheat.
You lie to yourself, and those you truly love,
and when you meet that special one you'll find that you have none,
no love to give ‘cause you'll have used it up,
and in the meantime you've become the victim of, your own lust)
