Shame I am

Perceptions killed all ties
Guided by an ignorant flame I'm despised
They did not separate the colors or sounds
No longer able to pronounce my name

My shame killed their comfort
When their traditions could not change (me)
I became the enemy of their happiness
Something I've never shared in or known

Whom can I trust all my blood has turned away
I can no longer implore aid of my brothers
I am left alone to remain whilst I walk the earth
Where once lies a rift created hatred dominates

My shame killed their comfort
When their traditions could not change (me)
I became the enemy of their happiness
Something I've never shared in or known

Is anyone left who can remember the self
Throw away the ancient traditions
Where hatred once was let love dominate
Or alone shall we walk bare foot upon dry sands

Where is it now that I am doomed to travel
Could you ever tell me when you stand still yourself
You can't see the beauty in me can you in any?
