Quit acting out
Stop running your mouth
This isn't the place
You don't have the crowd
So what to do now?
Deaf ears are, by nature, not tuned to hear.
Skip the line and do what you stepped out to find
Paint over me
Replace the image with something nice
Like a bowl of fruit or a cup of rice.
But make sure to fully apply
You can cover me up
But my voice doesn't die
Spread my name and sprinkle in lies.
Make me look like this bad guy.
It's all good now, and I honestly have given up on how.
So erase those memories.
The ones you share with the one smashing these keys.
You gotta get out the paint,
roll up your jeans and start to paint over me
But like with any period of time
There is always some type of find
Discovery comes when you allow yourself to be kind
Paint over me
I don't wish to be
Another follower turned casuality
I'll walk away for free
Just make sure that when I leave
You paint over me
When the urge to reach out hits
Remember that wounds heal bit by bit
And if you could just please
Let me be
Paint over me
