This Which Shouldn'T Be
When fairness plays not
the strings are plucked to keep them ringin'
The notes sound as words written
To spell out what this means to me
I doubt I'll ever say
Come forth as one
To take me from Lonely
You could be my safety net
I fell to my knees
in awe inspired hypnotic
I see not what you seem, but what you are
By the grace of God this shouldn't be...
As much as I want it, we can never be
Spilled is the blood of the innocent,
Cried is the screams of problemed hearts,
Cut is the arms of the wicked,
And I've spilled from cuts I scream
