Wrongful Guilt
Posted: Sat Dec 27, 2008 10:24 pm
this song is about a good friend of mine and her brother's friend. she was at her brother's friend's house one night hanging out, and after a little too much to drink, she and her brother's friend ended up sleeping together. it was a big mistake though, because the friend already had a long-time girlfriend. anyway, when she told me about the mistake she'd made, it inspired me to write this.
Verse 1
Who was more absent-minded?
It still remains undecided
A round too many and control is lost
I hope someday you pay the cost
The cost will break you but you deserve it
The thought of your actions is so unnerving
Carelessly took the story to where it goes
Should've used your head and kept your damn legs closed
Pre-Chorus
I guess that you can't control yourself
I can't believe that you forgive yourself
How the fuck can you live with yourself?
How could you betray them like that?
Chorus
I don't have to know you, at all to despise you
Wait til your life falls through, and there's nothing you can do
Wrongful guilt (Guilty as wrong)
You were in way over your head
If it got out you'd end up dead
Wrongful guilt
Verse 2
Mistakes are made when the mind is locked
But some realize that they can be stopped
Out of control goes over the line
Have you no consideration for your prime?
Loyalty is lost by the power of deceit
I know it's true but I'm still in disbelief
Promises made so no one ever knows
What was so hard about keeping your damn legs closed?
Pre-Chorus
Do others always have to think for you?
What if they found out about you?
Tell me what the fuck is wrong with you?
How could you go that far?
Chorus
