Shame

On an ocean of lies, nearly drowning in fate
Devoured by waves of disappointment
My make-believe raft, built of pieces of shame
My dignity long set for land

Loosing ground...

Wind, lash thy tongue!
Whip this broken back.
Fierce and strong!
Capsize this vessel for all that I lack!
Capsize this vessel for all that I lack!

Save my soul...

Death, take me home, I beg of you
For these waters are cold.
My limbs are cramped, my pupils enlarged and my heartbeat is slow.

Raise the waters above my head
Blind these eyes with waves of turmoil
Break these bones with shipwrecked debris
Fill my lungs with the salt of regret

Please, please forgive me...
Shame.
Shame, Shame, Shame...

In an ocean of lies, nearly drowning in fate
My make-believe raft, smashed to pieces
Death, take me home through the waters of fate
Pardon me from the stains on my soul
