lyrics

Be careful with the words you choose
She has a different use for it all
Writing a heartache and singing
Poetic as I could have been
She's from a different when she sings
While reading a novel
I'd like to help you, give a hand
But it's your word against this man's
I'd like to help you, give a hand
But you have to understand

I can't 'cause I cut them off
My hands, I can't 'cause I cut them off
(pretty paintings)

Imagination has its price,
when you're old and when you're nice
I'm sure the other kids were there
And you feel that it's not fair
Citing promiscuous passage
I'd like to dive into your eyes
This tragedy at hand disguised
And figure out if it's just me
I'd tell you what I really see

But I can't 'cause I gauged them out
My eyes, I can't 'cause I gauged them out
Dear I can't 'cause I glued them shut
My eyes, I can't 'cause I glued them shut
(pretty paintings)
