Lyrics Shame In A Basket - Mushroomhead

I put my shame in a basket
Some of it cracked some of it's cracked most of its pure, hatred
I put my name on your casket, signed my life away
How fantastic would it be to kill you all?
Be to kill you all?

I put my shame in a basket
Some of it cracked some of it's cracked most of its pure, hatred
I put my name on your casket, signed my life away
How fantastic would it be to kill you all?
Be to kill you all?
Up against the wall
Be to kill you all?
Up against the wall
When the whole damn thing just falls apart
And the walls close in, no matter who you are
The right hand of God, strikes you down hard
Get on your knees and pray

Embrace the shame
Accept the blame
Image defamed
It's far too gone to ever be the same

It's not the victory we need
It's not the mercy that we seek
It's not the punishment that brings us to our knees again
Our souls are torn our blood runs deep
Our hands were tied
Our tongues cut from our mouths when we were young
The sins we cast, the stones we've thrown
(Over and over and over and over again)
With every ounce of retribution
We manifest the pride, we glamorize the vengeance

The sacrifice belies the monotony
As the doldrums of privilege set in
Can't let the world know, don't you ever let them in
Nearly gone now, to the memory of time

Year after year, desensitized
All empathy's been paralyzed
The final calm before the storm
Before their boots kick in your door

All that you've ever known
All that you've never shown
(Into its horror)
All that you ever loved
Gone replaced and numb
(Into its horror)

All that you ever feared
(No time, no place, no care, nowhere
No time, no place, no care, nowhere)
Became all that was ever near
(Feel the fading life, feed into its horror)

All that you ever feared
(No time, no place, no care, nowhere
No time, no place, no care, nowhere)
Became all that was ever near
(Feel the fading life, feed into its horror)

(Into its horror)
(Into its horror)
