Projector

So light me up, my little projector

And eat me up like Hannibal Lecter

Then turn us from a friend into strangers

'Cause you'll never admit that you're wrong

Enough's enough, projector

So sit us down and give a new lecture

Then wear us out like ugly old sweaters

You bummed me out 'til I wrote a song

Enough's enough, projector

Shut the fuck up, please

You flap your gums until I wanna pull my teeth

You may invade their brain

And wear them down into insane to say

"Oh, wow! ", "Oh, word!? ", "That's wild, I agree"

Nah, but that cannot be me

I see through every smile like twenty thread count sheets

Apologize or die

You'd choose the latter not the right to be

A decent human being just for once

I'm talking to a wall again

Why do I even try?

So light me up, my little projector

And eat me up like Hannibal Lecter

Then turn us from a friend into strangers

'Cause you'll never admit that you're wrong

Enough's enough, projector

So sit us down and give a new lecture

Then wear us out like ugly old sweaters

You bummed me out 'til I wrote a song

Enough's enough, projector

Shh, listen more, talk less

I've seen this film before and I know how this ends

You tell me how you're right to light relationships on fire

But try to lock us all inside because you're wrong

Wow, look at your success

You shit on all your friends and blamed 'em for the mess

But I don't need to believe everything that I read

I can see there's a demon that's stealing my peace

A disease that never leaves until I sing through gritted teeth

I'm talking to a wall again

Why do I even try?

So light me up, my little projector

And eat me up like Hannibal Lecter

Then turn us from a friend into strangers

'Cause you'll never admit that you're wrong

Enough's enough, projector
