Shutting gates...let me in... | |
You understand better than anyone, | |
So how could you expect me to go on? | |
When there is nothing left for me, | |
Just empty seeds and a shell of who I used to be, | |
Downhearted and frustrated on most days, | |
All hope I had is stripped away, | |
So what would you have me do? | |
I’ve done everything, | |
I already know what they’re gonna say, | |
I see it in their face. | |
“A moment of weakness…a selfish act…” | |
Proof no one really listens, | |
I took matters into my own hands, | |
…Please understand. | |
Each painful breath feels like a kick in the chest, | |
How could you expect me to go on like this? | |
Yet they’ll have the nerve to call me “selfish”, | |
“A moment of weakness” a moment of weakness? | |
This could be the bravest thing I’ll ever do, | |
You have to understand, you have to, | |
If there’s a plan, I don’t see it, | |
If you showed me love, I didn’t feel it, | |
These words aren’t for them, they’re all too late, | |
Please don’t deny me your gates… | |
So what would have me do? | |
Already know what they're gonna say, | |
I see it in their face. | |
“A moment of weakness…a selfish act…” | |
Proof no one really listens, | |
So I took matters into my own hands, | |
…Please understand…please let me in. |
Shutting gates... let me in... | |
You understand better than anyone, | |
So how could you expect me to go on? | |
When there is nothing left for me, | |
Just empty seeds and a shell of who I used to be, | |
Downhearted and frustrated on most days, | |
All hope I had is stripped away, | |
So what would you have me do? | |
I' ve done everything, | |
I already know what they' re gonna say, | |
I see it in their face. | |
" A moment of weakness a selfish act" | |
Proof no one really listens, | |
I took matters into my own hands, | |
Please understand. | |
Each painful breath feels like a kick in the chest, | |
How could you expect me to go on like this? | |
Yet they' ll have the nerve to call me " selfish", | |
" A moment of weakness" a moment of weakness? | |
This could be the bravest thing I' ll ever do, | |
You have to understand, you have to, | |
If there' s a plan, I don' t see it, | |
If you showed me love, I didn' t feel it, | |
These words aren' t for them, they' re all too late, | |
Please don' t deny me your gates | |
