lyrics

Wasted all your colors
On things you'll never see
You touched a fire
But you won't touch me

Buzzing like an airplane
With the pilot trapped inside
You're so full of hope
But you don't know why
It's better not to try
I am free in spite of me

I took all these photographs
And placed them side by side
In a chronograph
That measured time
Your wasted time

Buzzing like a motorcade
For a body double stunt
The foolish may follow
But I'll come out in front
Boredom of the hunt
I am free in spite of me
