If I could begin today
If I could start to walk away
If I could find the words to say
If I was wrong
I was wrong
I see the way you look at me
With standard shamed hypocrisy
You cut me from the family tree
And all along
I've withdrawn
You say I'm betraying
That I'm suffocating
Each breath that I'm taking
I'm sick of you saying
"I'm gone!"
Breathe in
Screaming it out
I'm so lonely
Reach in
Swallow it down
You don't know me
What do you see through
The scope that you're pointing
Cause I'm just a sheep here
In this lion's clothing
I'm gone
In my penitentiary
I'm shackled to my memory
There's stairs that lay in front of me
All along
All along
If you only knew my pain
If I dare to say your name
Would you come and take the blame
Right or wrong
Right my wrong
This God I've forsaken
Is standing here waiting
It's me that he's chasing
My spirit is shaking
I'm gone
Breathe in
Screaming it out
I'm so lonely
Reach in
Swallow it down
You don't know me
What do you see through
The scope that you're pointing
Cause I'm just a sheep here
In this lion's clothing
I'm gone
Save me from this hell that you put me through
Who's gonna save me from this hell that you put me through
Who's gonna save me from this hell that you put me through
Or maybe I'm gonna be the one who saves the ones like you
What do you see through
The scope that you're pointing
Cause I'm just a sheep here
In this lion's clothing
I'm gone
