lyrics

Make a beat to move some feet
Or change a mind, or a change of heart
I play these chords to play my hand
Each defense a work of art
And I have trouble speaking
It always comes out wrong
And this week is no different
Just like my newest song

And I've never been a painter
Or an artist with my words
An architect of syllables just repeating what I've heard
These notes I make are not unique
These melodies seem trite and cheap
And I can't keep my mind at ease for anything
Minstrel or mistaken; I'll guess I'll wait and see

My train of thought derailed killing hundreds
My weaknesses erupt and are exploited
My heart is on display
In a custom fitted case
And all I ask of you is to not touch it

I'm broke and unsuccessful
I'm boring and obsessive
I'm hurt but never hurting
What is wrong with me?
These notes I make are not unique
These melodies seem trite and cheap
And I can't keep my mind at ease for the life of me
A minstrel or mistaken; I'll guess I'll wait and see
