Grapevine

Does my record show
 That I'm damaged, disfigured with my faults exposed?
 Cast your judgement aside for once
 Stay close, and take a second glance
 Forgive all the things that I can't change
 These stones have been cast in advance
 Before you knew my name
 Flawed, and therefore labeled from the start
 Maybe I haven't kept my hands clean but no one can decide where I belong
 Draw all your conclusions from afar,
 But naming everybody guilty will only bring to light your own faults
 And I don't want to know
 What happens through the grapevine you've struggled to grow
 Keep your thoughts inside for once
 Wake up and take a second glance
 Let go of all the things you fabricate. You're mind has got you in a trance
 To hide you from the blame
 Flawed, and therefore labeled from the start
 Maybe I haven't kept my hands clean, but no one can decide where I belong
 Draw all your conclusions from afar,
 But naming everybody guilty will only bring to light your own faults
