Abortion
Kid Rock Lyrics

My veins are poppin' from this love inside
I am overwhelmed with emotion and have a strong desire to express it.

I just can't let it out
But I feel unable to express it effectively, and it is causing internal conflict.

This pipe and these needles are my only guide
I have turned to substance abuse as a way to cope with my emotions.

They've got me on the wrong route
But this has led me down a destructive path that I regret.

What is my life about
I am questioning the meaning and purpose of my existence.

Living in the shadows of a man I've never seen
I feel like I am living in someone else's shadow and have never truly found myself.

Dreamin' like a lonely child
I yearn for a sense of belonging and fulfillment, like a child with an unfulfilled wish.

I know your brothers and your sister and your mother too
But I am aware of your family and loved ones, and wish that I could meet them.

Man I wish you could see them too
I feel a sense of longing and regret about never having had the chance to meet your family.

Oh Lord
I am turning to a higher power in my time of need.

Man I wish that you could see them too
I continue to feel regret and longing about never having had the chance to meet your loved ones.

So can I come to see you sometime
I want to meet you in person and connect with you on a deeper level.

'Cause I been missin' you
I feel a strong sense of loss and longing when I am away from you.

I've never heard you cry I've never seen you whine
But despite our connection, I do not truly know you and have not seen you at your most vulnerable.

I'm feeling oh so young
I feel alive and invigorated in your presence, like a child.

But still I must die to get to you
But I recognize that I will eventually pass away and only then will I be reunited with you.

And if I do, I wonder how just you will see me
However, I also feel uncertain about how you will perceive me after I pass away.

And implicate the things I've done
I worry that my actions in life have not been good enough, and that I will face judgment for them.

I'm dyin' in the shadows of this man I've never seen
I feel like I am living in someone else's shadow and that my life has not been truly mine.

I'll see you soon
Despite this uncertainty, I look forward to being reunited with you soon.

Now where's my gun
However, my internal conflict and emotional pain have pushed me toward dangerous and violent impulses.

Let me open your eyes
I want to share with you my own perspective and understanding of the world.

Let me see who you are
I want to deepen our connection and truly get to know you on a personal level.

I am you, you are me
I believe that we are deeply connected and share a fundamental oneness with each other.

We are a part of the second coming of Christ
I see us as a part of a greater spiritual movement or rebirth of some kind.

It's God himself in a jar
I believe that this rebirth or spiritual movement is the very embodiment of God.

You got me, sad and lonely
Despite my connection to you and my belief in a greater spiritual purpose, I still feel sad and lonely at times.

When I'm me, me
I struggle to fully accept and understand my own identity and existence.

You know you make me so lonely
And I look to you for comfort and connection to alleviate this loneliness.

I am so alone
But ultimately, I feel a deep sense of isolation and separation from the world around me.

And I will pray and then I'll cry
In my moments of greatest despair, I turn to prayer and release my emotions through tears.
