lirik lagu nathan albums - shelter's wet dream
[verse 1]
i hope when i die, they use what i write
to make right what i broke
i haven’t exist—
i haven’t existed since i was born
some say that i’m nice, some say that my mind
fills bodies with holes
the look in my eyes is as blank as white blinds
on glassy windows
[pre~chorus 1]
i’ll never do what i want
i know blame leads to no resolve
but for all this powerlessness
there must be a powerful
my life is like a coin in fundraiser bowls
you put me where you want
thе last thing i’ll say is no
[chorus 1]
i know they’re all missing
what i keep down in my soul but…
i’m the shеlter’s wet dream
yes, and i do what i’m told
if i took offense, they’d listen then
cause that’s what i’ve witnessed
but i’d lose all of my status
so my feelings stay suppressed
i have no home (x3)
i can’t be owned (x3)
[verse 2]
i don’t want to be whom anyone leans
on for validation
i’ll never waste breath on all your weightless
cheap conversation
my highest of fives for fighters that try
to raze guards i uphold
i know i’m prime bites for buzzards, magpies
soliciting votes
[pre~chorus 2]
i flashback to extorted years
where power speaks and i obey
my name was a calculated
difference honor minus shame
served food from spoons in church pews
never grew out that role
i need an old white dude to
sanction my every move
[chorus 2]
you’re just glad to have me
cause i’m easy to control but…
i’m the shelter’s wet dream
yes, and i do what i’m told
if i took offense, they’d listen then
cause that’s what i’ve witnessed
but i’d lose all of my status
so my feelings stay suppressed
i have no home (x3)
i can’t be owned (x3)
[outro]
do i say all this just to be
manipulative?
your word against mine
if i just want the upper hand
