Lyrics for Victimhood

Victimhood, I heed the call To step out of victimhood Has a saintly glow, holier than thou It erased my shadow, shadow Only bird's-eye view Can help me transcend this archetype And who am I that this has happened to? Victimhood Rejection it left a void That is never ever satisfied Sunk into victimhood Felt the world owed me love Only bird's-eye view Can help me transgress out of this hole Who am I that this has happened to? To transgress us beyond our tragedy I took one for the team I sacrificed myself to save us (I sacrificed myself) I rejected myself (I rejected) Self-sacrificed myself Felt sorry for myself To transgress us beyond this tragedy I sacrificed myself to the entity To transgress us beyond our tragedy (to save us, to save us) I sacrificed myself Victimhood, victimhood I heed a call out of victimhood Out of, out, out of victimhood Here I go now
