Repenitence Lyrics

Oh, the sick sweet scent of gasoline

Or the scene on her face when you come clean

When the summertime shame, it came to soon

I don't remember much

Another blank slate, another sigh

Another forty-three thousand reasons why

Oh, the timer's falling, I can't reach

I want what they won't teach

There's poison in my skin

A self-indulgent crown of sin

When will I learn?

Why won't I die?

Wholly powerless unless I lie

Fools who stare too long ten to lose their eyes

Please embarrass me once then blame me twice

When they offer their hand, feel free to say

"Where were you yesterday?"

Oh, I've lost the place I'm supposed to be

And I stifle my mind and call it free

Oh, the pain isn't mine, not mine to claim

But I hurt all the same

There's poison in my skin

A self-indulgent crown of sin

When will I learn?

Why won't I die?

Wholly powerless unless I lie

Over and over and over and over and

Over and over and over and over and

Over and over and over and over and

Over and over and over and over and
