Beneath My Sins - You Weren't There

You weren't there
Your body was here but your words were away

I am left alone floating with no landmarks
Trying to shine and hide my tears

With my imaginary dad, I've build myself a shelter
Where I don't get mad and don't envy the others

CHORUS:
You weren't there when I was calling for help
When I needed your forgiveness
(Falling, rising, standing, trying)
My wounds have taught me what you were supposed to bring me

Deserter!
Take your responsibilities
And take off my flowers
Of what you have seeded years ago

CHORUS

Although I've tried hard to be the best actress in the show
The confidence in me has never had the chance to grow

CHORUS 2x

The wounds of absence
I can feel their presence here in me
Wounds I will keep in me
Wasn't I worth your time?
