Pray I show you/ The enamel on your teeth is wearing thin/ And you’re already nursing a sore throat/ You’ve been biting rather hard on our concept dear/ I thought by now I’d made it clear/ It’s not the sharp lines of the mask that make it appeal/ It’s the character that manifests/ It’s the man behind the dress/ It’s the way I invite the glance and redefine the stare/ I don’t expect you to understand/ You’ve already been programmed/ To see your life through someone else’s eyes/ Pray I show you/ What you hold so tight/ What you think is clear/ It’s not yours my dear/ Pray I show you/ Substance/ Decent/ Sacrifice/ What it takes/ To redefine/ The wondering eye/ You see/ Your life/ Through someone else’s eyes

I found a way to let you in/ Please... now that you can see me/ For who I truly am/ Don’t cast me aside/ I can’t bear to go through that again/ Help me shake my mothers legacy/ Only you can complete me/ Only you can complete me/ You give me/ A reason to wake up/ A reason to breathe/ A reason to wake up/ A reason to breathe/ Time stops/ Time stops/ when you pull my arms tight around you/ Time stops/ Time stops/ When you pull my arms tight around you/ When you pull my arms tight around you/ When you pull my arms tight around you/ When you pull my arms tight around you/ Time stops/ Abandoned at the age of nine/ Indulgence provided me comfort/ But it left behind/ A broken man living a lie/ I feel so sick when you’re away/ Before you I felt so ashamed/ I feel so sick when you’re away/ Before you I felt so ashamed/ I feel so sick when you’re away/ Before you I felt so ashamed/ I feel so sick when you’re away/ Before you I felt so ashamed/ You give me/ A reason to wake up/ A reason to breathe/ A reason to wake up/ A reason to breathe/ Time stops/ Time stops/ when you pull my arms tight around you/ Time stops/ Time stops/ when you pull my arms tight around you/ Amanda/ Time stops/ Time stops/ when you pull my arms tight around you/ Time stops/ Time stops/ when you pull my arms tight around you

Pray you can afford some bleach/ To dye that blue collar white/ Out of fashion are the paint and dirt that wear home on you at night/ Those callouses on your hands/ The truck lighter burns on your forearms/ Might have been badges of honor two decades ago/ But these days/ In these states/ You’re mocked for the sacrifice you make/ In these states/ These red states/ You’re mocked for the sacrifice you make/ We are the thieves of the means to knowledge/ We’ll live in debt/ Die in debt/ And you can bet/ We’ll never own shit/ Preordained is our fate under this oligarchy/ No more time for our dreams under this star spangled sheet/ Those callouses on your hands/ The truck lighter burns on your forearms/ Might have been badges of honor two decades ago/ But these days/ In these states/ You’re mocked for the sacrifice you make/ In these states/ These blue states/ You’re mocked for the sacrifice you make/ We are the generation that stayed home/ And while our masters grind our fathers down to the bone/ We crack them open/ We drink the marrow/ How much better are we than the ones we hate/ It seems this culture of exploitation is hard to break/ Pray you can afford some bleach/ Pray you can afford some bleach/ Pray you can afford some bleach/ To dye that blue collar white/ We are the thieves of the means to knowledge/ We’ll live in debt/ Die in debt/ And you can bet/ We’ll never own shit/ We are stuck
