lyrics

I flew too close to sun again, my wings burnt up
Fell to the ground, straight through the rabbit hole tumbling
Lower and lower until the darkness thickened in
Eyes find a dim light turns out that its hopeless
My reflection tells me that I’m just another problem,
Let go of the fright better level with the program
It’s easy to be free when we tell you what you need, just
Sit back, take in the air, let your thoughts recede
Your dreams atrophy but naturally you have to
See you’re a casualty to the ways and
Means you say they’re after me but you lack the
Faculty to halt the catastrophe
You’re just another body that can push dirt, make wages
Fax a form, synergize, motivate, take up space
A waste of skin and time, I’ll be an oversized paperweight
Unless I relax my mind and let them give a new fate

Chorus:
Breath it in, get it under your skin
Try not to feel bitter
Breath it in, get it under your skin
Now don’t you feel better
Stay inside your frame, don’t ever change
Hide that shamed face of yours and act your age
Stay inside your box, don’t mess with the locks
Obey the orders from the top when they tell you to stop

You hope your daddy's home but you hear no baritone saying
You're not alone scared running trip over the
Microphone but no matter where you roam you’re
Surrounded by the walls of your own green zone
Shine a light on purpose, bring it to the surface,
Destiny forms a worried mind you feel you don’t deserve this
Merciless, Father offers you a stretched out hand
Ask him can you tell how to be my own man,
Make my own plans, screen my own scenes, buy my own things,
Try to glide steady while I fly with my own wings
Help me shut my eyes to the world so I can’t see
My face in the mirror and I cant breath
Peering out the top of the walls can be dangerous
Don’t you realize you’re a slave to the stages?
Surrounded by a lack of control that is ageless, faceless
Cage your thoughts so you can say you’re blameless

Chorus:

I have no way to escape my frame
