Picture Frame Songtext
von Link Strummer

Take the picture out the frame
Take your words and run away
It ain′t that easy to replace
I know the look right on your face

Oh, take the picture out of the frame
Try to throw it away, forget my name
By convincing yourself I'm still the same
Telling yourself that you′re never to blame

Blocking me just to stay in control
All that fire just to go out cold
Oh, leaving out the good so you can justify it in your mind (mind)
Telling me that it's best you go
But I think that you already know
You're stuck inside the past because the truth is hard in present time
Yeah, yeah

Take the picture out of the frame
Try to throw it away, forget my name
By convincing yourself I′m still the same
Telling yourself that you′re never to blame


You can try to erase me from your brain
Call it healing if it helps you escape
When we know what we got can't be replaced
Baby take the picture out of the frame, no

Locking every part of you that′s bold
Tryna mute the voice you can't control
You′re reading into pain by taking every little thing as a sign
(You like your signs baby)
Painting over love to make it fold
Pushin' back the part that breaks the mold
Leaving out the parts that make it harder for you to deny
(Oh no, yeah)

Oh take the picture out of the frame
Try to throw it away, forget my name
By convincing yourself I′m still the same
Telling yourself that you're never to blame

You can try to erase me from your brain
Call it healing if it helps you escape
When we know what we got can't be replaced
Baby take the picture out of the frame, ooh


Take the picture out the frame
Take your words and run away
It ain′t that easy to replace
I know the look right on your face (face)

Yeah yeah
No no no no
Yeah yeah

Take the picture out of the frame
Try to throw it away, forget my name
By convincing yourself I′m still the same
Telling yourself that you're never to blame (ooh)

You can try to erase me from your brain
Call it healing if it helps you escape
When we know what we got can′t be replaced (ooh)
Baby take the picture out of the frame, yeah

Take the picture out the frame (nah)
Take your words and run away (no, baby)
It ain't that easy to replace (oh it′s not)
I know the look right on your face
