You say I'm one of you,
But not once have I felt it

You say your blood is mine,
Not once have I seen you flinch when it spills

You say you love me,
But not once have you shown it

I've taken your clan,
Not once was I a part of it

You say I'm home,
But not once have you let me in
You close your hearts at my sight

You say you care,
Truth is you're obliged to
Afterall, your blood is my blood

Truth is,
You fear the antecedent
My blood is his too

Truth is,
You're petrified of the ghost's power
He who loves me might slay you

We are all aware
Your wish is the ghost's burden to be lifted
And your peace restored at last
