I spoke clearly
I thought I knew just where to go
I carved my history
Into a map across the floor
All the stakes I claimed
I wanted them to run
But when I turned they were all surrounding

Show me how I deserve
This repetitious curve
A silhouette of words I wish I'd never learned
I did it
I agree
It's surely soon coming

I'm void of virtue
I don't need ears to hear you

I beg forgiveness with no repentance so
The culprits spineless or just too aware of the
Meaningless worth of progress
That gains nothing less
Than withdrawal and a fluent regression

If theres a price to pay
I'd polish each penny opaque
So it could shadow every light on my face
Take your consolation
My memory sustains abrasions

I'm void of virtue
I don't need ears to hear you
No accuser shames
Closer than my conscience aims
And this crooked translation
Can give no compensation
And I'm desperate, could you..

Watch these shadows corrode
And the bottles explode
When I did it again
I did it again
I did it again
I won't do it again

Since that's the way i roll
That's the way it rocks now real slow

If theres a price to pay
I'd polish each penny opaque
So it could shadow every light on my face
Show me how I deserve
This repetitious curve
This silhouette of words I should of heard
Smile, it's my turn next
And I can't get out of it

I'm void of virtue
I dont need ears to hear you
No accuser shames
Closer than my conscious aims
And this crooked translation
Can give no compensation
And im desperate, could forgive me yet

Watch these shadows corrode
And the bottles explode
