lyrics

On the day that we were born they stamped our faces with a barcode
With the most permanent ink, in bold across our foreheads
Scanned and sold to the prison of our everyday
All we want is to scratch the mental scar away

We grow up to disappoint the sure predictions of the ones who
Nailed the fences round our necks but only to protect us
Once they know we've ignored their false identities
They'll freak out, diagnose us with a head disease

But we can't be blamed, we can't be blamed
I can't be, you can't be, we can't be blamed

King or queen, you're royalty
Heart or spade, it's overplayed
They'll brand us, scar us, leave us
When they fail to understand us but
King or queen, your love is free
King or queen, your love is free

They don't know the kind of pain that we endure to keep them at ease
Feel so false our lives are morphing into movies
With no end, the kind to keep its viewers taunted
We act well, despite the circumstances

‘Could you please not be yourself’ is their prescription, more like poison
Frantically outlining that we're wrong, alone, unwanted
Just a faze, the only rational conclusion
We can change, an impractical solution

Cause we can't be blamed (we can't be blamed)
We can't be blamed (we can't be blamed)
I can't be, you can't be, we can't be blamed

King or queen, you're royalty
Heart or spade, it's overplayed
They'll brand us, scar us, leave us
When they fail to understand us but
King or queen, your love is free

We deserve to have a throne
Praise to each their own
We deserve to wear a crown
Tell me why do they have to bring us down?

King or queen, you're royalty
In reality, in reality
Heart or spade, it's overplayed
We're humanity, we're humanity
They'll brand us, scar us, leave us
When they fail to understand us but
King or queen, your love is free

King or queen, you're royalty
In reality, in reality
Heart or spade, it's overplayed
We're humanity, we're humanity
They'll brand us, scar us, leave us
When they fail to understand us but
King or queen, your love is free
King or queen, your love is free
King or queen, your love is free
