I have built foundations upon the ruins of my past
They look fine but lord knows they won’t last

All my life
All my life
All my life I’ve been ashamed
Ashamed of myself

Come with me and witness the world through my eyes
And maybe then you could know me without my disguise

All my life
All my life
All my life I’ve been afraid
Afraid of myself
Afraid of this whole damn world

But not on this sunny afternoon
When nobody dares to speak too soon
And why is everyone running away from me?

And my this day is lovely
Much lovelier than I thought
I think I’d mingle with all the ladies in the garden
Had they all not just been shot

The smoke has cleared
But it’s still cloudy in here
In this head I call home
Oh my word what have I done?
