Lyrics for Song: Not All Me
Lyrics for Album: Original Album Series [2012]
I wear their face on top of my face
I am the perfect target screen for your blindly-fueled rage.
I bear the brunt of your long-buried pain
I don't mind helping you out, but I want you to remember my name.
It's not all me
It's not all my fault
I may remind you
But I won't take it all on.
Past-riddled rage
I see the buttons I engage
With my dignity in place
I'm all too happy to assuage.
It's not all me
It's not all my fault
I may remind you
But I won't take it all on.
Lest I find my voice
Find the strength to stand up to you
Lest I state my limit and take on only what is mine to.
We are a team
I'm here to help mend and re-seam
All I trigger
Unknowingly a job I hold in high esteem.
It's not all me
It's not all my fault
I may remind you
But I won't take it all on.
It's not all me
It's not all my fault
I may remind you
But I won't take it all on
I'll take only some of it.
