Glance at me with hopeful eyes, Can't you see there's need to try. Could have stopped yourself and I hoped you'd might. Feelin' bittersweet about it coming to light. Monochrome. Perceive the world as just your own. Never really phased, so proud to lead the path you've paved. Won't stick around to hear-out what you've got to say. Been done with that since I turned the age where I could tell you where to stick your bigotry & ignorance. The shivers down my back that you made, You walked yourself right over my grave. I should have said. So can I admit? In my defense... your life's a mess, I think you ruined it. I hate to say 'somethings won't ever change', You point at me like I'm to blame. You could have said and with all respect... Don't wish you dead, you've made your bed, now go and lay in it. Resent the scene recurring in my mind Branding me, engraved in my life. Called me out so clear, you'd chosen to fight Took your shot at me for one last time. Monotone. The words come out but the sound 'it drones'. Complacent, losing face... caused by the actions you can't restrain. Decisions made. The consequences you have to take upon your chin just like the way you taught us how to be emotionless, mere shells of broken men. The shivers down my back that you made, You walked yourself right over my grave. I should have said. So can I admit? In my defense... your life's a mess, I think you ruined it. I hate to say 'somethings won't ever change', You point at me like I'm to blame. You could have said and with all respect... Don't wish you dead, just save your shit, go shave your head, you've made your bed, now fuckin' lay in it! Oooh! A burden I held up for the likes of you. Someone I knew, who'd never pull through. So I feel stained; contained by a conscience not my own, yet it still has free reign. Exhaust myself on time already spent for someone who'd never cared for what it meant. So now it must be clear as day... you know we're not to blame. Been around to hear-out what you've got to say. I've heard you out, it sounds the same... Go build that perfect life all for yourself, but no one else. You know we're not to blame. The shivers down my back that you made, You walked yourself right over my grave. I should have said. So can I admit? In my defense... your life's a mess, I think you ruined it. Hate to say 'somethings won't ever change' You point at me like I'm to blame You could have said and with all respect Don't wish you dead, you've made your bed, now go and lay in it. Glance at me with hopeful eyes Glance at me with hopeful eyes Glance at me with hopeful eyes
