I'M Getting Away From Something
I'm getting away from something
and denying it uncovers my shameless guilt;
and how weak I am facing the truth,
put some sense in me, a humiliating feeling!
I'm very good at lying, and you can tell I'm a liar
because I don't blush when I'm being scolded,
I deserve it more than mischievous children by far;
I should be humble enough to admit I'm wrong,
if I can't apologize with words, let me apologize in song...
is this the best way to convince you and amend?
I'm getting away from something,
it's too complicated to be explained;
if only pity could change everything,
I would be very happy, not this sad!
Bring me back to the stark reality,
let me regain my lost dignity;
I need to be forgiven and hugged,
that guy who showed coldness and shrugged
has left and he doesn't own me anymore,
do I deserve to be punished and still implore?
