Figure Lyrics







Those were just words, I know it

Lost sounds that flew by in space

Could not have been misdirected

Felt like a slap in the face



Is it the point of a story

To draw a picture in flame?

I grew a heart in molting

Pleasure got beat down by shame



Every last person on this big ole fat earth

Was given a chance to make their own worth



But those were just words, I wrote em

Movements and shadows out my mouth

Daunted and bored and faulty

High hopes are bleeding me out



Every crying baby, shut up

Crowds in exodus all stuck in the mud



Sickening prayers and poems

Open doors slammed in a rage

Take a good look at the mirror

Only a figure in frame
