A Page Once Frayed Lyrics

'Cause in the end I'll see the colors through the dark
(An empty room doors shut and locked
You're keeping all of us inside)
But rest assured all I can do is
(Play along with this game you've played for years
I'm callin' it quits just to survive)
The only way to feel alive
Is to sow my eyes shut and give it time
This shouldn't be happening

I can't quite seem to figure you out
You think you've got everything (under control)
But deep down, you're crumbling
I've given up on trying to make sense of it all
Through all the lies you dragged along with you
(Your silence is heard through the noise you created)

I should have seen it coming
A charming smile holding a loaded gun
You came and got what you wanted and now you're disappearing
So go ahead and have your fun

I should've known all along
(I should've known all along)

Drop the anchor
Your facade is your claim to fame

Standing outside of your window
Is a boy in fear of living amidst the destruction
The people surrounding a statue of you are screaming
"Give me a reason! A reason for treason!"
