Letra de Shame In A Basket
I put my shame in a basket Some of it cracked some of it's cracked most of its pure, hatred I put my name on your casket, signed my life away How fantastic would it be to kill you all? Be to kill you all?I put my shame in a basket Some of it cracked some of it's cracked most of its pure, hatred I put my name on your casket, signed my life away How fantastic would it be to kill you all? Be to kill you all? Up against the wall Be to kill you all? Up against the wall When the whole damn thing just falls apart And the walls close in, no matter who you are The right hand of God, strikes you down hard Get on your knees and prayEmbrace the shame Accept the blame Image defamed It's far too gone to ever be the sameIt's not the victory we need It's not the mercy that we seek It's not the punishment that brings us to our knees again Our souls are torn our blood runs deep Our hands were tied Our tongues cut from our mouths when we were young The sins we cast, the stones we've thrown (Over and over and over and over again) With every ounce of retribution We manifest the pride, we glamorize the vengeanceThe sacrifice belies the monotony As the doldrums of privilege set in Can't let the world know, don't you ever let them in Nearly gone now, to the memory of timeYear after year, desensitized All empathy's been paralyzed The final calm before the storm Before their boots kick in your doorAll that you've ever known All that you've never shown (Into its horror) All that you ever loved Gone replaced and numb (Into its horror)All that you ever feared (No time, no place, no care, nowhere No time, no place, no care, nowhere) Became all that was ever near (Feel the fading life, feed into its horror)All that you ever feared (No time, no place, no care, nowhere No time, no place, no care, nowhere) Became all that was ever near (Feel the fading life, feed into its horror)(Into its horror) (Into its horror)
