a piece of paper so clean and white i see the letters i know what to write i pull my hairs out and i tape them on i see the words now i d read aloud chorus but we obey the laws of the physical like words on paper like a portrait drawn we obey the laws of the flesh and blood like words on paper like a portrait drawn a dirty mirror staring back i could paint the blushes carmine red i pull my nails off and i tape them on a vile expression i pick up the brush chorus but we obey the laws of the physical like words on paper like a portrait drawn we obey the laws of the flesh and blood like words on paper like a portrait drawn you re in the painting staring back at me you ve come a long way i know come walk the path to my reality you ve got a long way to go outro your eyes are hollow your lips are cold your voice is muffled by the sheets my mind is broken no words come out your hands are covering my mouth i ll just say nothing
