Delinquent

I'm backed by a reputation
One you can't help but hate
Through the years it's been said
That my life expectancy
Was a pointless worry in my head
But you'll make sure I know
That my past is something
You won't let go

An apology is what you seek
I'm not giving'em out
Your opinion is mute
I know what you expect from me
But I really don't give a fuck
About what you're talking about

This judgement gets the benefit
Backed by the mindless guilt
Of something I did long ago
I'll always be a delinquent to you

I know the resentment you
Harbor for me
The constant taunt of misery
I learned long ago to move on
But with your hold still in the past
I left you behind
My future riddled faithless
That's all you can believe

I won't be condemned by failure
What you expect from me
No more misery
But one thing I know to always be true
I'm just a delinquent to you
