Oppressor
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Wake up, it's only a dream.
This isn't happening.
I'm not ashamed to say
I remember those days, those days
I would close my eyes.
I thought that would save me, but
I knew you were standing over me.
I still taste the blood in my mouth and feel the pain.
The freeze frames I see of the past are nothing but anguish and cries.
I'm better than you'll ever be.
All I wanted was for you to leave.
What did I ever do, to deserve this from you?
I gave you everything.
What did I ever do, to deserve this from you?
You took everything and you turned your back on me.
I was innocent, how could you do what you did?
I was only a child.
Nobody wants to hear the truth.
I stared at the ceiling at night, wondering what could I have done?
What could I have done?
What did I ever do, to deserve this from you?
I gave you everything.
What did I ever do, to deserve this from you?
You took everything, and you turned your back on me.
Wake up, it's only a dream.
This isn't happening.
I'm not ashamed to say I hate who you are.
It pains me to say I forgive you.
What did I ever do, to deserve this from you?
I gave you everything.
What did I ever do, to deserve this from you?
You took everything, and you turned your back on me.
