Borderline
I live on the borderline
but never in a place that's mine
nowhere ever left to shine
i'm never perfectly fine.
Unpredictable
for everything, indictable
you really think my existence is condemnable?
i think you're full of bull.
anyone who wants can take me
they can try to break me
they'll shake me, try to wake me
but in the end they forsake me.
if there's a god he hates me
he knows my sins await me
with promises he baits me
he takes my hand and checkmates me
take my sanity
cleanse me of humanity
strip off all my vanity
you're left with profanity.
I'm never really fine
there's nowhere left to shine
never in a place that's mine
because i'm stuck on the borderline.
