I'll make no apologies
for things I never did
but no need for excuses
for what I have done
A collection of shadows
pressed in yearbook pages
all my back stabbing friends
who left me out to rust
Take a look into my eyes
my anger is still burning
because of your knifes
that twisted in my back
Walked on a tight wire
step by step carefully
but you cut the rope
I fell without a net
Landed in a vipers nest
you watched with glee
the injustice caused
but I couldn't see you
If I gave you the rope
would you hang yourself
laughing in my misery
made them throw stones
They walked over my shadow
what the hell really happened
I never got any reasons why
you left me damaged in dust
Wasn't I always ridiculed
by the small town fools
rubbing salt in my wounds
because I never did fit in
Walked on a tight wire
step by step carefully
but you cut the rope
I fell without a net
Landed in a vipers nest
you watched with glee
the injustice caused
but I couldn't see you
Someone keeps haunting me
creeping in the darkness
the one who spread lies
played me like a pawn
On the outside looking in
but you no longer hear me
which is why I had to flee
left me nobody to trust
Now I'm not even the same
person that I once was
the scars have come along
never to leave me alone
