As my name is Scapegoat, i find it amusing a great band called Forgotten Tomb  has a song called The Scapegoat (from albun Negative Megalomania, 2007). I was laughing at it until i listened it. What a great song! But words were those that did cut my heart.

How the hell can that fit so great in the shitty part of my life too? Or is it only that some people have the talent to write of their own experiences in such a way everyone can relate to it? At least I did. I listened it few times in a row, and then took the lyrics infront of me.  If someone doesn't know the song, I put lyrics here.


The Scapegoat

They want to force me in the corner once again
When I was thinking there was difference between us and them
A bird with its wings nailed to the ground
Waiting for the justice that I never found

I'm just the scapegoat for you all
To brush away the dirt from your rotten souls

When friendship's a lie, and life's a fragile dream
I struggle so much, but my hate remains unseen

I'm just the scapegoat for you all
I'm just the scapegoat for you all

It's so easy to talk when you're not walking in my shoes
Try to be like I am for 1 day, and see what would be left of you

I look in the past and I can't see a single face I would still call friend
Just don't forget sooner or later all lies come to an end

They want to enjoy my end, they wait for my defeat
I'm really sorry buddies, I'm still on my feet
I've been cast in tears and blood
I've been treated like a dog
Not their fake pathetic lives
Not their sickening disguise

I'm just the scapegoat for you all
To brush away the dirt from your rotten souls

When all seems to be wrong, there's a place where I find myself
In my sea of distrust, I am sure I don't need any help

I'm just the scapegoat for you all
I'm just the scapegoat for you all

It's so easy for them to judge the life of others
They're all made of the same poisoned blood
They would even sell their mothers

I look in the future and I know I won't make the same mistakes
I know someday things will be different and with scorn I will piss on your graves

Band: Forgotten Tomb
Album: Negative Megalomania

That touched me deeper than it should've. But i love the song, whole song as it is.

I am listening to it at this moment too, and I have a pretty strong feeling I will have few drinks with it when evening and darkness comes to join me, again.
