"Shame" lyrics

"Shame"

Descending, devolving, I can't stop falling
It's Friday night and my conscience is calling
But I can't talk right now
In the truth I found
A blinded rage that can't be tamed
Everything that you took from me
You made me hate myself
Can't un-feel what I felt

Untangling the threads
How do I undo
The infinite web of
Lies you wove me through
And somehow you're the victim
In your twisted frame
You deconstructed guilt
And turned it into blame
You can't outrun shame

Resentment is biting the hand that starved me
It's Sunday morning, forgiveness is calling
But I can't talk right now
I'd rather find out what
Happens when I burst the bubble
Of someone so egomaniacal
Burn all that he made
I'll let him ride his fate

Untangling the threads
How do I undo
The infinite web of
Lies you wove me through
And somehow you're the victim
In your twisted frame
Be careful what you wish for
Or I'll play your game
You can't outrun

It wasn't all just in my mind
You're the parasite I had to find
Uproot the rot that you ingrained
I'll take control, take back my name
It wasn't all just in my mind
You're the parasite I had to find
Uproot the rot that you ingrained
I'll take control, take back my name

Untangling the threads
How do I undo
The infinite web of
Lies you wove me through
And somehow you're the victim
In your twisted frame
You deconstructed guilt
And turned it into blame
You can't outrun shame
