lyrics
From the corners of my mind to this corner where I stand
Where time is done stopped and reason has no rhyme
Feeling are like raw onions to the eyes
fixed stare no lies no compromise
bitterness comes out but I can’t figure why
Feed the old man everything that I don’t want
starve the new one with things I should have
an oxymoron but tell me whose the moron
The one who lives a lie or the one that knows why
Welcome to Sinville population is one
one too many fall am the mayor of this town
thinking that am it but this thought really kills
my will not yours and that’s how we die
crucified to our needs hanging from the neck
instead of the cross where hope comes from I need some.
And I Thought I knew better I thought I was strong
but I got strung out so cut feelings like cord
Gave it all away in the hopes to get some back
But what I gave away wasn’t mine from the start
plus it was rejected yeah I should of expected
never should of done it though I felt neglected
Jaded to it all make scars leave scars
hurt people hurt people some hurts you can’t take back
Live with regrets always floating in my mind
time heals all I hope that they are right
I know I was wrong so yeah that’s on me
Acting like a kid when I should of acted grown
Acted like a noob like a rookie in the game
Running up the court should of sat on the bench
No excuse now I need to make amends
Lord I pray for forgiveness… amen
Where time is done stopped and reason has no rhyme
Feeling are like raw onions to the eyes
fixed stare no lies no compromise
bitterness comes out but I can’t figure why
Feed the old man everything that I don’t want
starve the new one with things I should have
an oxymoron but tell me whose the moron
The one who lives a lie or the one that knows why
Welcome to Sinville population is one
one too many fall am the mayor of this town
thinking that am it but this thought really kills
my will not yours and that’s how we die
crucified to our needs hanging from the neck
instead of the cross where hope comes from I need some.
And I Thought I knew better I thought I was strong
but I got strung out so cut feelings like cord
Gave it all away in the hopes to get some back
But what I gave away wasn’t mine from the start
plus it was rejected yeah I should of expected
never should of done it though I felt neglected
Jaded to it all make scars leave scars
hurt people hurt people some hurts you can’t take back
Live with regrets always floating in my mind
time heals all I hope that they are right
I know I was wrong so yeah that’s on me
Acting like a kid when I should of acted grown
Acted like a noob like a rookie in the game
Running up the court should of sat on the bench
No excuse now I need to make amends
Lord I pray for forgiveness… amen
