lyrics

I know a lady
Who says you can’t see the picture
When you’re standing in the frame
I don’t see her daughter
And thus not the lady
But that wisdom has remained

Blind to the picture
Blind to what we’ve done
Blind to the picture
Blind to what goes on

Some stopgap information
Is making the way to reparations
And just being friends again

We’re wasting lives
One more reprise

Blind to the picture
Blind to what we’ve done
Blind to the picture
Blind to what goes on

If I were trading
My space inside the picture
You know I’d end up
Just the same

What have we done
To give
Each other room
To be themselves
And frame themselves
Frame themselves
