Lyrics

like a child's camera
scratched lens, dented corners
every image a new delight in an old light
the wildness of youth amidst frozen moments
but somehow you forgot
that life's just day to day
one foot placed after another foot
one grain placed next to another grain
and you got tired of
giving your life to it
just to become a shadow of a thing
clenched fists
walked right through them
but they still stopped you
leather jacket, new tattoo of
Marilyn without makeup
oh action, distraction
the vacant call of 'I made this happen'
proud in that moment of the flame
but slow for cover and quick to blame
but soon you will remember that
this life's just day to day
one foot placed after another foot
one grain placed next to another grain
one path walked after another's path
one pain after every other pain
you are a present made to be given
and they will take
and take
and take
keep your eyes down, walk fast
but they still stop you
leather jacket, new tattoo of
Marilyn without makeup
clenched fists, walk right through them
a golden wake of misery
black eyeliner, bloodied lips, you're
still Marilyn without makeup
