[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


[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


[Bridge]

Tell me where I sign my name (Tell me where I sign my name)

Inside I find no peace of mind to hide behind

Only bread of shame

Tell me where I sign my name (Tell me where I sign my name)

Inside I have no peace of mind

Only 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
