Panopticon A Letter
I see far back in the past, and the man I was
Such shame and regret for all my weakness
I can't believe I cushioned your feet for so long
Certainly I am not blameless
I have been foolish more often than not
But I am vilified, I've been convicted
Sentenced by your judgement without crime
So here's my apology for all the horrible things I've thought
But never have done
For the vindication I'll never have
For unwanted battles I never won
You'll never read this and I don't give a shit
I don't want to hear from any of you again
Fuck your judgement and f..ck your beliefs
And f..ck the values you tried to force on me
So now let's clear the air and shed some dead weight
You've burdened my shoulders for far too long
I'm letting go before it's too late
Stand on your podium and preach your gospel
I've stopped listening to you
I'm not your stepping stone, I'm not your crutch
And I don't give a f..ck what any of you do
So here's my apology you'll never read
I'm sorry you hurt your f..cking feet walking on me
I'm sorry the sound of my voice burdened your ears
I should have known that your own musings
Were all that you wanted to hear
So after years and years and years
It is time to let go
So after years and years and years
It is time to let go
So after years and years and years
It is time to let go
So after years and years and years
It is time to let go
