Lyrics

Fell on a bitter day
Knew the truth, and paid for it
While a thousand bitter minds
Swallowed the lie and thanked you for it

I long just to reach out and seize
To hurt them just the way they've hurt me
No better way to be
The hope that this means I stole
Only wishing they'd leave me alone
If love can't make me whole

Claws out, twisting all ideals
Fool, planting bitter seeds
And stealing all the joy
But power is all those eyes see

Taking the brunt of your hypocrisy
While you're lying and claiming it's me
I take sides that should not be
I'm still seeking out somewhere to hide
Tearing the thorn from my side
And bleeding all the time

Taking the brunt of your hypocrisy
While you're lying and claiming it's me
I take sides that should not be
And the truth stares me deep in the face
I ignore it, to my deep disgrace
And drown myself in shame
