Hand Me Off (song I've written.)

Black and white
Have never felt so right.
So many shades of gray
The color’s washed away
Beetles and bug-eyed
We’ll turn to the right side
And left it too loosely
Tied with the accusing

Well go, hand me off now
Into the crowd, who’re screaming out loud.
Bend me until I break
This was no mistake
I’ll eat my own cake and I’ll make it, too.

Old and stumbling along
Just hummin’ a song
Free their poor arms
All tangled and harmed
I’ll be where you are.

Well go, hand me off now
Into the crowd, who’re screaming out loud.
Bend me until I break
This was no mistake
I’ll eat my own cake and I’ll make it, too.
And make it too.
We hold the truth.
To tie up this youth, in denial
Told you so it’s alone.
Left here on your own
But roll your own stone
So it goes again.
And it goes again.

So misunderstood
They tell you it’s too good
To be close to the truth
You know “we don’t know you”
So wrap up again
It is time to pretend
When the wreckage distends
Then I’ll shout it out loud.

Well go, hand me off now
Into the crowd, who’re screaming out loud.
Bend me until I break
This was no mistake
I’ll eat my own cake and I’ll make it, too.
Making it, but you’re breaking it (until it bends again)
Until we send again.
Go, barefoot in the snow
You’ve now stubbed your toe
And yet nobody, nobody knows you!
Well go, hand me off now (hand me off now)
Into the crowd, who’re screaming out loud. (screaming out loud)
Bend me until I break (until I break)
This was no mistake (was no mistake)
I’ll eat my own cake and I’ll make it, too…
