I used to shine the perfect borrowed light

It wasn't mine and it was taken overnight

Shame traces the edges of your face

Fully lit, independent of this place

Oh, help me not to see

Oh, diamond wedding rings

His counterfeited things

Well, I've been borrowed

Shame on me

My muse is gone, forsaken of the theme

No motto now, no cradle, no dream

Bathed with a soft, embezzled light

Six feet below an idealistic life

But I still want these things

The flighted childhood dreams

As foolish as they seem

Well, I've been taken

Shame on me

I used to shine

It wasn't mine

Shame

Fully lit

Now only sweet little wishful things

Are bound and gagged, tied up in different strings

No living castles up in the sky

Far away, unborrowed clouds go by

Well, I've been taken

Shame on me

But I still want these things

The flighted childhood dreams

As foolish as they seem

Well, I've been taken

Shame on me
