SHAME
In the darkest nights
with the sharpest knife
you better think twice
he'll cut right through to you.

So don't close your eyes
or Dare to dream
or everyone will run
by how loud you scream
and you can pray to the one above
but by the end of each day
there's never any love.

Oh you will search
and you will seek
you might find some hope
way down deep
but long it won't last
because unlike your past
reality will seep
from the depths of your soul
it takes away your smile
it makes you feel cold.

So keep my eyes cloudy
and remove all of my skin
teach me a new language
cleanse me of my sins
hold me down in the fire
take this demon home
let me travel through the wires
make me a part of the unknown.

Clear up my memories
replace them with something bad
then maybe I could move forward
instead of drowning in what I had.

So take my teeth but all at once
stab my eyes and remove my tongue
take me instead
I'll replace everyone
alone I'll be
for what I've done.
