Band: Framing Hanley
Song: POOR lil ME

Trophies in our eyes; cement in our shoes.
Smokescreen alibis…wish I had the answers
A magic carpet ride for just you and me
‘Til they pulled the rug from under our feet
It’s a curtain call for gravity. Oh gravity.

Innocence gone MIA,
Now we suffocate half the day.
We were kids out in the rain
Now we stay inside and hide away
Staring at ceilings and screens
Pretending we know how to dream.
We’re machines about to break longing for yesterday

You can hang your halo at the door.
God called in sick again, the subject’s sore.
Ain’t these reasons why we keep him around?
Stop. we’ve been shouting at the clouds for so long.
We lock all the doors but leave the light on.
If you’re really there then come rescue me. Come rescue me.

Innocence gone MIA,
Now we suffocate half the day.
We were kids out in the rain
Now we stay inside and hide away
Staring at ceilings and screens
Pretending we know how to dream.
We’re machines about to break longing for yesterday

Reaching for a reason “why”
I am done hurting. I am unworthy
Children run and play, til their everything is “running in place for a little change”
A magic carpet ride til they pulled the rug…yea they pulled the rug from right under our feet
Trophies in our eyes…smokescreen alibies
I wish I had the answers
I just keep on coming undone

Innocence gone MIA,
Now we suffocate half the day.
We were kids out in the rain
Now we stay inside and hide away
Staring at ceilings and screens
Pretending we know how to dream.
We’re machines about to break longing for yesterday
