Guided by Shame Lyrics

Crumbling

The towering walls we built up in the womb

Cowering

As they showered in pieces to build up the tombs

Cry it out

Muffled distortion my voice of misfortune

All my dreams went up in flames

No one bothered to listen

My eyes used to glisten

Everything I've done has been guided by shame

The race is on, you'll never win

The dance with time goes deep within

Vampires, robotic skin

I wish we could just start again

The race is on, you'll never win

The dance with time goes deep within

Vampires, robotic skin

I wish we could just start again

They found me out

They found me out

Breaking down and broken in

I feed the fiend to live again

My breath is shallow I'm spread too thin

They found me out

Breaking down and broken in

I feed the fiend to live again

My breath is shallow I'm spread too thin

You didn't make the cut

You didn't make the cut

I wish you'd had an abortion

First world misfortune

I would have pried out my tongue

Muted by shame

The race is on, you'll never win

The dance with time goes deep within

Vampires, robotic skin

I wish we could just start again

The race is on, you'll never win

The dance with time goes deep within

Vampires, robotic skin

I wish we could just start again

Breaking down and broken in

Feed the fiend to live again

My breath is shallow, I'm spread too thin

But I have to run to live again
