lyrics

Frankie


Verse 1

You're dissatisfied
with the things I have done.
So you say your goodbyes
To your creation.

Prechorus 1

I want you to understand
that you made me with your own
two hands
Your own two hands now
I never had a chance

Verse 2

It's time to get wise
And see what you have done.
Don't turn those pretty eyes.
See your creation.

It's not very nice.
To deny what you've done
Oh, You can turn your eyes
But you can't run.

Prechorus 2

I want you to understand
that you made me with your own
two hands
Your own two hands now
I never had a chance

Against your best laid plans
The seeds that you've sown made me
What I am
What I am
You've gone, and I'm damned

Chorus 1

You can leave
But you'll know
That you reap
What you sow
Deny all you might
But you know that I'm right
Yes you know I am right

(Yells!)

Verse 3

Here is some advice
Now that we're nearly done
Beware what you devise
For your creations.

Chorus 2

You can leave
But you'll know
That you reap
What you sow
Deny all you might
But you know that I'm right
Yes you know I am right.

Outro

You thought you owned me
But who owned who? (X3)

Yellow Journalism Houston, Texas

Colin passed a CD and an invitation to Brandon to form a group. Listening to the concepts Colin had developed, Brandon was compelled to join. After working together for several months, Michael was brought on to complete the trio. Since then, the music has grown into a collaborative effort that reflects the different personalities of all three members, yet is as cohesive as the band. ... more
