Undone

When I was young I was taught to throw sticks and stones

Because sticks and stones they could break your bones

The only way to get ahead that made any kind of sense

Was to enrich myself at other people's expense

I could walk over corpses to make myself a name

I would cheat and I could lie without showing no shame

People tried to stop me but they didn't understand

I wasn't looking for affection or a helping hand

Why doesn't anybody listen

Why doesn't anybody hear

Why doesn't anybody see me

Why doesn't you interfere

Don't ask me why

I never told the truth cos I believe all my lies

I believed that if I made my own alibis

I would find a good reason and a better excuse

So I could justify my hate and my self abuse

I would satisfy myself in any way I could

Because I knew that I would always be misunderstood

I did a lot of mean things that are hard to forgive

But all I ever wanted was a life to live

Looking back at my life there's a lot I regret

I made a lot of mistakes that I can never forget

But I didn't know better I was insecure

I guess I never took care of my problems before

I feel bad about the people that I pushed around

I feel bad about the people that I let down

I put the blame on myself I can't look the other way

Living with my guilt is the price I have to pay
