lyrics

time is the only trade
rips you back and forth and together again
I know I’m not the man you wanted

the writing's on the wall
my crime is punishable
I know I let you bear my burden

take me in, take me in
is there no face in this room I can call a friend
I guess this is what I’m deserving 

soaked through in the rain
with no more bottles to distract my brain 
yes, I’ve come here to finally face this

selfish, scared, lying straight
a coward's blood at the lions gate 
come forth now from your cages 

you can tear me apart
smear my virtue, piss on my art
my only truth was indecision 

time is the only trade
from birth to death, cradle to the grave
I’m sorry I’m not the man you needed.
