ashamed

washing down an infinite rainbow
in colours of gold and grey all the way
without mercy, don't let it stray
your day is not today
with blood I alone shall pave the way
I let you fuck our past away
and this is the thanks I get... for shame

my life is not yours
my feelings my own
get out of this space
return to your home

folding up is simple I know
when your in too deep to stay away
without redemption, your honour so frayed
your day is not today
with death in sight I march my way
I let you fuck the past away
and this is the thanks I get... for shame

my life is not yours
my feelings my own
get out of this space
return to your home

growing up we feel so alone
if your face is too far to take the blame
but with my departure, your presence will fade
your day has come today
you'll feel my vengeance upon your face
I'll fuck your past and feel disgrace
the thanks that I get is my only shame

my life is not yours
though you do what you can
I'm tired of trying
too tired to stand
too tired to fight
too stubborn to die
too patriotic
to give up my rights
"this one, anytime I say love if you wanna say love, uh, say it, and if you say it you might as well say it loud, and if you don't feel like sayin' it, don't say it, but if you feel it, certainly say it..."

    "my life is not yours
    my feelings my own"

    This is sooo true when it comes to people who were(or still are) such a huge part of your life for such a long time. And even though they have helped you to get where you are today (be it emotionally, intellectually, spiritually, financially, etc.)........in the grand scheme of things.....your life is your own........not something for them to lay claim to or put on their wall among the other plaques of accomplishments. Or if you are on their list of dissappointments, they still don't reserve that right to define your life's cause and purpose. Because their was a time before this person, and there will be a time after..........and they can't touch that.........because your life is truly your own. :)

    reminds me a little of I am Mine :p......yep, I'm full of it this morning.

    hope all turns out well for you, Perceptual.
