Frames - Numbers

go ahead and remember

the things you hate about my life

forget who you love and replace with yourself

i’ve had enough

like a lab rat

making me find my way through your impossible maze

but you manipulate as i perpetuate

so what if i broke some rules for a change?

try harder drop the act of playing martyr

figure out your life

before you waste your time to save mine

just you wait and see

you’ll come crawling back to me

if i take away mistakes i’ve made

you’ll do what it takes to make me fade

because there’s nothing left at stake

you’ve got nothing on your plate

if i take away the only thing

that makes you want to break my spirit’s chain

you’ll just find another frame to paint me in

doesn’t matter what i do or where i’ve been

there was a time when our ears weren’t drowned out in noise

when the effort and love for this was listened to, instead of destroyed

we’ve been spoiled by ourselves and our thirst for more and our lust to enjoy

we’ve been given everything for free

and yet we’re victims of each others' ploys

stages rang as voices sang for the first time to virgin ears

«no one hears me»

we complained even though this was made exponentially simple for years

if i take away mistakes i’ve made

you’ll do what it takes to make me fade

if i take away mistakes i’ve made

you’ll do what it takes to make me fade

i can see your walls are caving in

so just listen and listen and listen

if i don’t fit your frame just throw me away
