Hangnail Songtext

von Rationale

Imagine a sea of screens watching, judging, hating anything they see,
Then pan to a shot of me questioning everything.
Get out if it means you'll be happy.

It's a brand you burnt into my back,
A blistered reminder of why I'm where I am.
Twist my arms as much as you're twisting my words.

I don't think i'm the horse you want to bet on
Or a person to have faith in,
I just filled in the dotted line.
Now I'll hide behind the paint.
Get out if it means you'll be happy.

It's a brand you burnt into my back,
A blistered reminder of why I'm where I am.
Twist my arms as much as you're twisting my words.

There's no way i could make anyone happy.
I'm callous from how this has rubbed off me.
It's not as hard as you'd think, being made out of stone.

I wish i had this poetic poise, an articulate finesse.
I'm too clumsy and the words escape me.
I'm hazy and any passing thought can displace me.

It's a brand you burnt into my back,
A blistered reminder of why I'm where I am.
Twist my arms as much as you're twisting my words.
