Mustard Gas - Inside A Frame lyrics

A vengeful angel flies around the sun Drippin' his wax down on those that watch Feathers falling next, they're dancing around Such a graceful decent, so unlike his own Crashing down to earth Destruction in his wake he caused There I go again, trying to narrate So I could hide my role Have to own up, have to concede They used me like you We all have our jobs, markers of our fate That dictate our place But now I know it's not his fault How could I (?) responsible? So wrought by what I've done Wouldn't wish it on anyone What of the man with the wooden god? Never did him good But never steered him wrong Can't claim the same The blood on my hands Marks my guilt, exposes my crimes I've played with lives Like the Gods of old But I'm no God I'm just a fool Leader of the mob King of the swayed, culpable The moms and dads who turned to me Now hold their torches at my door (?) to alleviate the burden of my guilt Never really had agency I'm just a false prophet, just a heretic Powerless without your belief (Chorus) A young couple meets and falls in love And live so happily, it's a platitude But it's a lie, affections unrequited Presence someone else will complicate The best laid plans of invertebrates made evil by love (Chorus) Trapped inside a frame not of my design Simple follow (?) remember the lines I had no choice, this is how it was cast This is how it was cast, I had no choice Trapped inside a frame, not of my design Follow what is destined and tow the line There is no escape, that's why they call it fate There is no escape, that's why they call it fate There is no escape, that's why they call it fate There is no escape, that's why they call it fate There is no escape
