I was set loose as a child

To find my way out in the wild

Fell asleep inside a cage

And woke up in middle age

I felt like I was living a lie

And had to escape it all

With mortal fears I shaved off the years

And went from a walk to a crawl

I know I'm reaping what I've sown

But I never thought I'd die alone

I guess I signed up for this fate

By sowing the seeds of hate

And when I finally shook the phase

I was lost and miles away

Got too hard to turn around

I've left no bread crumbs on the ground

I felt like I should have apologized

But that was so overdue

And by your eyes knew I was despised

I guess I was afraid of you

I know I'm reaping what I've sown

But I never thought I'd die alone

I guess I signed up for this fate

By sowing the seeds of hate

So please believe this will that you read

That I thought of you everyday

I grant to you my hollow legacy

Please don't live your life this way

I know I'm reaping what I've sown

But I never thought I'd die alone

I guess I signed up for this fate

By sowing the seeds of hate

Seeds of hate
