understand this i
never hoped, never felt dealt
the way i should have been
under the stars of good

i cannot hope, cannot feel
cannot cope, cannot deal
through this preemptive strife
life

i will not die
i'll shed my skin
all the blood was spilt
from innocence

and i pray and i beg
don't find me so useless
so useless

understanding through
all the views you seem to prove
new waves of jealosy
from a newborn sea

wade the wake, wade the mire
from down 'til the steeple spire
forever life seems to be
a little eternity

i will not die
i'll shed my skin
all the blood was spilt
from innocence

and i pray and i beg
don't find me so useless
so useless

and i pray and i beg
don't find me so useless
so useless

i will not die
i'll shed my skin
all the blood was spilt
from innocence

and i pray and i beg
don't find me so useless
so useless
