What have I done?
Who have I become?
I’m sorry, You let go
& now you’ll never know
The Shame
Of Who I Am
I found a corner to die in
Someone you don’t know
I hope you finally let go
Ashamed of who I am
I’ve found a corner to die in

Leave me in misery
Leave me & mutilate who I am
I don’t feel
Nothing anymore
I don’t feel
It’s not your fault
It’s not your fault to me

I can't stay awake much longer, before I fall apart. Keep me together to take me apart, as I give myself away.
It's alright, it doesn't hurt that bad anymore. What you've done to me, will always remain in my thoughts and actions. Like a scared dog I'll stop myself. From getting any closer to the ones that I love. It's only my fault that you're gone.
I pushed you away, I've fallen apart & I won't come back together. Anything I try feels like a lie, it just sits. It isn't the same without you here. Idid it to myself & I'll do it again.

I lie awake. In my sedation, I learn to reflect just more pain. The same as you, won't you refrain? The weight of your existence burdens another.
How deeply unlovable am I to you? Just want to dance, not hear my plans. To erase this face & all that it's done.
All of my burdens off your shoulders. I've fallen apart.

Watching the left hand subtly draw a heart on the wall.
You’re not there to listen if I tried to tell you at all.
Isn’t this what you wanted
Isn’t this what you fought for
Another 8 hour shift stuck inside your shifty car
Well I can tell by the way you talk
You don’t want me around
Ignored by you
The cigs you smoke & the cheap perfume
What used to mean so much to me means nothing anymore
I hate seeing your face & I hate seeing your car

Twenty five cents above minimum wage
keeps me fed & eats me from the inside out
Proving you right, without you I’ve been forced down alone.
Easy for you, easy to forget
What you have now
& what you can still lose
To know, I’m letting you down, I’ve been forced out, alone.
Drawing out what’s left, I’ve had my suspicions. What keeps me fed eats me from the inside out.
Proving you right, without you I’ve been forced down alone.
Over & over & over & over

Feed the hungry now. House the homeless.
Placed below the dollar. Tamir Rice was a child.
You don't know how bad it is, the less you act the worse it gets.
You don't know how bad it is, the less you act the worse it gets.
Still, the gap grows. You're not "Pro-Life".
The system you support, leaves so many to die.
You don't know how bad it is, the less you act the worse it gets.
You don't know how bad it is, the less you act the worse it gets.
The blood is on our hands. The blood is on our hands. The blood is on our hands. The blood is on our hands.
