For Me Ten Others
Guilty Reflections: A Soul's Struggle Revealed
Lyrics
weighed and found wanting
Feeling inadequate or insufficient upon evaluation
spelled out on each wall
Manifested visibly or prominently in every aspect of the surroundings
my name is on your list
My name is included among those targeted or blamed
i won't get away with this
Consequences cannot be avoided or escaped
there's blood on my hands
Guilt or responsibility for causing harm
there's blood on your face
Someone else bears the physical evidence of harm
throw me into the well
Requesting punishment or being held accountable
i'm as guilty as hell
Admitting to being fully responsible for wrongdoing
lost and found again
Experiencing periods of being lost and then found again
i'm found and still lost
Despite being found, there's an enduring sense of being lost
get me off of your list
Requesting to be removed from blame or responsibility
i'm not cut out for this
Feeling unsuited or unfit for a particular situation
guilty is written all over my face
Guilt is apparent and evident in one's expression
cast me into the waves
Desiring to be submerged or overwhelmed by circumstances
send me one of your whales
Seeking assistance or support from someone powerful
i am on the verge of a bankruptcy
On the brink of financial, emotional, or moral collapse
what is it that you could possibly want from me
Questioning the reason or purpose behind demands or expectations
and what is it that you give me credit for
What merits or qualities am I being acknowledged for?
i've got nothing here that's not already yours
I possess nothing that isn't already owned or known by you
weighed and found wanting
A repetition of feeling inadequate upon assessment
spelled out on each wall
Reiterated visibly or prominently on every wall
your word against my fist
My word or statement contrasted with physical aggression
i'm not cut out this
Feeling unsuitable or inappropriate for a situation
guilty is written all over my face
Guilt is visibly present on one's face
pull me out of the lake
Requesting to be saved or rescued from a dire situation
now my faith is on the wane
My belief or trust is diminishing or fading away
for me ten others
Asking for others to bear the consequences in place of oneself
ten others for me
Requesting others to suffer on one's behalf
take my seat
Offering my position or place to someone else without charge
it's free
My position or opportunity is available for others to take
let this cup pass me
Requesting to be spared from a challenging or burdensome situation
