Killing A Camera Lyrics - Braid

got caught kicking the canvas down 

i had plans but they never seemed to work out 

wide-eyed and on the lookout 

got caught tearing the whole thing down 

i was halfway done 

but then you know this painted scene 

could never leave me 

oh please believe me 

caught killing a camera 

now it seems calming and clear to hire 

a cast of kittens, the cats we've been kissing 

for the cameras we're lowering here 

got caught tearing the whole thing down 

i was halway done 

but then we sang it for memphis 

the new slang in frame and canvas 

just for the cameras 

when we are awake we sing "never... ever" 

this is where you must make up your mind 

should beauty be design this time? 

this time you decide cause we go with whatever 

we take our time 

got a cough 

my throat kills from singing 

my ears are ringing 

the stage is slowly sinking 

and we're all thinking the same thing 

let's not settle for satisfaction 

we are women and men of action 

let's stop clapping let's start doing 

a dream for the teens and in-betweens 

and twenties yet unseen.
