Killing a Camera Lyrics by Braid

Lucky To Be Alive

1998

Got caught kicking the canvas down
I had plans but they never seemed to work out
Wide-eyed and on the lookout
Got caught tearing the whole thing down
I was halfway done
But then you know this painted scene
Could never leave me
Oh, please believe me

Caught killing a camera
Now it seems calming and clear to hire
A cast of kittens, the cats we've been kissing
For the cameras we're lowering here
Got caught tearing the whole thing down
I was halfway done
But then we sang it for Memphis:
The new slang in frame and canvas
Just for the cameras

When we are awake (So this is where you must make up your mind)
We sing "Never, ever"
When we are awake (Should beauty be design this time?)
We sing “Never, ever”
When we are awake (This time you decide cause we go with whatever)
We sing “Never, ever”
When we are awake (We take our time)
We sang “Never, ever”

Got a cough
My throat kills from singing
My ears are ringing
The stage is slowly sinking
And we're all thinking the same thing
Let's not settle for satisfaction
We are women and men of action
Let's stop clapping, let's start doing
A dream for the teens and in-betweens
And twenties yet unseen
