"Scapegoat" lyrics

Make me your scapegoat

Hide what is inside, nothing new
Always lying to save face
You won't admit to slitting your own throat
Just to make me your scapegoat

I denied myself the high of serving you what you deserve
Even though I yearn for the day you learn that you're too far gone
I guess 'forever' never meant you wouldn't stab me in the back
But at least I have the spine that you lack

(I have the spine that you lack)
Reframe the past
And let me slip through the cracks

Hide what is inside, nothing new
Always lying to save face
You won't admit to slitting your own throat
Just to make me your scapegoat
(Victim mentality)

Cover my heart in thorns
I am the one reborn
Manufacture a hit-piece just to be perceived
As a victim of the fucking third degree
I can't stand the way you speak
Communicate in perfect circles so you can avoid the heat
Oh, how did you believe that you could ruin me
When everything you've earned all came because of me?

Reframe the past
And let me slip through the cracks

Hide what is inside, nothing new
Always lying to save face
You won't admit to slitting your own throat
Just to make me your scapegoat

His sacrifice will mean nothing at all
Ignite the flame and burn the man made of straw
