You Borrowed Lyrics

Helmet

Ill throw you scraps and talk
The bad things
The language or the motive
Affected shown is
Self imitating
Trust the dying breed
The pitch I made has been
On my end I trust in
Whats left here
To lie is
Admired you trust in
Without fear
You borrow
My world of one speak up
The good things
The guidelines let me follow
Offense is borrowed
