Bread of Shame Creed

[Verse 1]
If you say I'm alive I guess I'm living
Why should I exercise a choice I've been given
Tell me everything's fine and peace is coming
I won't listen to the heartache I'm numbing

[Pre-Chorus]
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 living on is bread of shame

[Chorus]
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 2]
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 walls fall down, let them fall on me
'Cause no one's around who believes me

[Pre-Chorus]
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 living on is bread of shame
