Lyrics
1000 words became from within the kodak
I was absent from the film pierced with a tack
While I know it's nothing more than glancing back
Which of the songs at odds would become your soundtrack
I'm sorry but I paint in pains that somehow survived
I'm sorry but I'm a jealous man under plastic armor hide
It shines like it's the real thing but you see like me it lies
You thought I could do better but it was only you that tried
Envy can be as friendly as anyone that you know
She keeps me company when you don't come home
Unwarranted and unwelcome but she stays the night
I've learned irrational sadness is the worst kind
I'm sorry but I like to drown when my lungs are perfectly dry
I'm sory but I'm a coward, weak under this plastic armor hide
It shines like it was the real thing but you see like me it lies
You thought I could do better but it was only you that tried
I'm sorry but I became someone that I don't recognize
I'm sorry but I'm a liar under a plastic armor hide
It shines likes it's the real thing but you see like me it lies
You thought it was me that could do better but you're the reason I have eyes
If i waste you not looking, God would surely leave me blind
