lyrics

Don't die stupid save yourself
From crooked folk like me
Look around paint a canvas
Of everything you see
And when you have to meet yer maker
Nothing stays the same
You're hands are full, an empty camera
Shooting empty frames

Imperfect image of yourself
Stays another day
Protect yer beautiful self
And paint your life away

Don't look clumsy make a face
To keep your place in line
Speak the lingo talk in tongues
To make it all sound fine
And when you want to keep it simple
Make it all deranged
And when you want to save your breath
You keep it all contained

You fucked me over so I fucked them back

Imperfect image of yourself stays another day
Protect yer beautiful self and paint your life away
You fucked me over so I fucked them back
Imperfect image of yourself stays another day
And your camera with no film
Will throw it all away
