Lyrics

[Verse 1]
If you say I'm alive I guess I'm livin'
Why should I guess your size a choice I've been given?
Tell me everything's fine and peace is comin'
I won't listen to the heartache I'm numbin'
[Verse 2]
When the world casts me down and says I've changed
I'll survive on all the promises you made to me
Guess there's no one to blame when all you're livin' on is bread of shame
[Verse 3]
Bread of shame
When the world says I've changed
Bread of shame
Just promise me fame I'll survive on the bread of shame
[Verse 4]
As long as you say I'm free
Then keep these chains on me
Tell me down is up
I'll let you fill this broken cup
When the worlds fall down
Let them fall on me
'Cause no one's around who believe me
[Verse 5]
When the world casts me down and says I've changed
I'm survive on all the promises you made to me
Guess there's no one to blame when all you're living on is bread of shame
[Verse 6]
Bread of shame
When the world says I've changed
Bread of shame
Just promise me fame I'll survive on the bread of shame
[Verse 7]
Tell me where I sign my name (Tell me where I sign my name)
Inside I find no peace of mind to hide behind, only bread of shame
Tell me where I sign my name (Tell me where I sign my name)
Inside I find no peace of mind, only bread of shame
[Verse 8]
Bread of shame
When the world says I've changed
Bread of shame
Just promise me fame I'll survive on the bread of shame
