Was I never enough?
Did I not give more love?
Are you another sentimentally bored
lonely housewife with chores?
Another fatal night out scorned.
Cease the night - out of sight.
Seen the last man standing?
He calls but you don't tease.
Playing your games with ease.
Are you pained in shame?
I'll take it all in blame,
To ease your aching pains.
Forgive my name?
Will you hold onto my sins?
Will you always let me win?
Swollen drunken nights to lose.
Sullen bodies - weekly abused.
Gloomy views - drowned in booze.
Will it always fill you up?
Will you need to cut
deep into nights
ending your own fights?
Are you pained in shame?
I'll take it all in blame,
To ease your aching pains.
Forgive my name?
If I show you how I bleed
Will you heal my needs?
Suffering silent souls seeking,
Searching but still they're bleeding.
Are you someone you're not?
Masked in shallow mysteries time forgot
Why do you wonder in fear?
The love you need is right here.
Are you pained in shame?
I'll take it all in blame,
To ease your aching pains.
Forgive my name?
