Kind

Today these eyes can’t clear their sight
Long dulled are my words like knives
And I’m chasing away my kind
Chasing away my kind

Choked on a collar shrinking in size
Long gouged out my sinful eye
And I lived in an abyss
I fell but I know how I tripped

‘Cause I’m a traitor
Just for changing my mind
And I’m the one who’s become
The worst of them
‘Cause I’m chasing away my kind
Chasing away my kind

Sorrow takes off it’s coat at my door
I just say get comfortable
And I’m climbing up the fence
On either side I’ll break my legs
‘Cause I’m running from my own kind
Abandoned my only life

‘Cause I’m a traitor
Just for changing my mind
And I’m the one who’s become
The worst of them
‘Cause I’m chasing away my kind
Chasing away my kind

My head’s in my hands and I feel like a fake
Was I really the one who made those mistakes
And I’m pulling the teeth I sharpened
Burying the hatchet I hunted with
I’m chasing away my kind
avoiding the only eyes I can look into

‘Cause I’m a traitor
Just for changing my mind
And I’m the one who’s become
The worst of them
‘Cause I’m chasing away my kind
Chasing away my kind
