Lyrics

Ten For Me, One For You

I'm dreading the moving
Reliving the poordom
I had no choice
What could I do

Now there are ten for me
And one for you
It's not what you said
But what you didn't do

In chains you stare through the wall
Our living room destroyed
This wheelchair can't run
No sense to carry on

It's the same wage
In the same cage
On the same stage
Now the uniform you're wearing
Is you

Now it's ten for me
And one for you
It's not what you said
But what you didn't do

In chains you stare through the wall
Our living room destroyed
This wheelchair can't run
No sense to carry on

I sent a message home
To show you work that's making you hate me
I sent a message home
To aggravate, insult, and erase me
I sent a message home
Stay away's the best way to treat me

Now you're deathly poor
And wearing my shoes
And there's new cold sores
Appearing on you

Lose virginity
With my fingertips
Walk a nervous line
Do a couple tricks

In chains you stare through the wall
Our living room destroyed
This wheelchair can't run
No sense to carry on


I sent a message home
To show you work that's making you hate me
I sent a message home
To aggravate, insult, and erase me
I sent a message home
(The last of your candlelight golden dreams have all died)
Stay away's the best way to treat me

I sent a message home
To show you work that's making you hate me
I sent a message home
I sent a message home
