Charity

Why do I sense benevolence, you stand tall at my great expense
Thick words of gratitude, what a price to pay
Stuck in my throat, I sell every word I say

But I don't want your charity twisting me round
I don't want your charity keeping me down

Why does your world keep burying gorging much deeper than it's ever been
Rubbing still harder, salt on my hurt
Licking my burns while I grovel in your dirt

But I don't want your charity twisting me round
I don't want your charity keeping me down

You pity me with your tasteless gestures, gratitude for kind
But your bludgeoned intentioned objectives are screwing with my mind

But I don't want your charity twisting me round
I don't want your charity keeping me down
