Bide my crime,
Give it some growing time.
If I let this loose,
I could wither away too soon.
Shamelessness,
I can't get it on the list.
What I get to see isn't slipping away from me.

Give me one reason why
(Give me one reason why)
I should let this die.

On your own,
You put me on, you put me somewhere.
Blood from stone,
You took it all.
It's a deception in disguise.

Take this mess,
Give it some room to rest.
Help me hide my muse,
Show me a clearer view.
