Paint by Numbers

[Verse 1]
Little bird on the window
Little red in the drive
Hear the song it has to offer
Not concerned with what's right

[Verse 2]
Little boy in his bedroom
Crumpled paper in his mind
Too afraid to set his pen free
Too scared to put up a fight

[Chorus]
I'll paint by numbers
Stay inside the lines
So I don't blow my cover
On the road to somewhere I will never find

[Verse 3]
Little bird flew far away
Somehow reached the other side
Little boy left his bedroom
Started to learn how to cry

[Chorus]
I'll paint by numbers
Stay inside the lines
So I don't blow my cover
On the road to somewhere I will never find

[Bridge]
I don't wanna go
I know I can't stay
I just wish I knew what lived that way

[Chorus]
I'll paint by numbers
Stay inside the lines
So I don't blow my cover
On the road to somewhere I will never find
