SHAME / ROTTEN
All the creative ways I submit to shame
The fear of god, the need for blame
A man I know by many names
But most of all, my own
A victim to some circumstance
A predetermined crime of chance
Sympathy for Cain exists
In crowded wombs and jawbones
You can't take me anywhere
But if you're staring down the face we share
When I cast you out, you'll find me there
Your son of man with holes in hands
That he won't let you hold
Or do you only see your own?
I starve to feed the parts of me
Far from who I oughta be
Tell me, are you proud of me yet?
(Are you proud of me yet?)
Rotten to the heart of me
Won the devil's lottery
Haven't got it out of me yet
(Are you proud of me yet?)
Hand-me-down martyrdom
Scorch the earth, of which it's from
Follow where the river runs
By never passing through it
Hand-me-down martyrdom
Scorch the earth, of which it's from
Follow where the river runs
By never passing through it
Hand-me-down martyrdom
Scorch the earth, of which it's from
Follow where the river runs
By never passing through it
The fear of god, the need for blame
A man I know by many names
But most of all, my own
A victim to some circumstance
A predetermined crime of chance
Sympathy for Cain exists
In crowded wombs and jawbones
You can't take me anywhere
But if you're staring down the face we share
When I cast you out, you'll find me there
Your son of man with holes in hands
That he won't let you hold
Or do you only see your own?
I starve to feed the parts of me
Far from who I oughta be
Tell me, are you proud of me yet?
(Are you proud of me yet?)
Rotten to the heart of me
Won the devil's lottery
Haven't got it out of me yet
(Are you proud of me yet?)
Hand-me-down martyrdom
Scorch the earth, of which it's from
Follow where the river runs
By never passing through it
Hand-me-down martyrdom
Scorch the earth, of which it's from
Follow where the river runs
By never passing through it
Hand-me-down martyrdom
Scorch the earth, of which it's from
Follow where the river runs
By never passing through it
