lyrics

[One morning I woke up and it felt
like something was off
I didn’t really know what it was
which was a bit annoying
There were no birds chirping
And there was this cat stealing food
from another cat
And I felt like, even them,
they can’t stick together
you know, and it’s just the way it is
And you have to ignore, you know,
let it go to keep on going
That’s alright but, sometimes it feels
a bit overwhelming
Not to feel supported by your kind,
I think we should do it from
time to time] ...

She says she can’t deny
That it’s a thread of lies
A made up story she fills with glory
And it’s a ghost of a shame
But no she can’t be blamed
She’s hiding the breaches
With homemade stitches
Remember your name
Remember the shame
You can take all the blame
Because you and I we are both the same
I can’t deny
I’m a a thread of lies
A made up story I fill with glory
And it’s a ghost of my shame
I’m hiding the breaches
With homemade stitches
And it’s a part of you and I
Because we’ve always lived a life
That we had dreamt of so far
And you can’t live a lie
If you don’t make it real
If you don’t forge it with steal
Remember your name
Remember the shame
You can take all the blame
Because you and I we are both the same
Remember your name
Remember the shame
Take all the blame
We are both the same
You put behind those words
When shouting in front of herds
of people caring
For their own selves only
Their own selves only
Remember the shame
You felt when you left my hands..
