Shepherds Pie

Verse 1

Steam on the window, storm in the pan

Grandma’s old recipe, passed hand‑to‑hand

But tonight it’s burnin’, boilin’ over the edge

Like a promise gone sour or a truth left unsaid

Pre‑Chorus

You said it’d fix everything

But you never said how

You served it up smiling

But I taste it now

Chorus

Shepherds Pie — layered lies in disguise

Shepherds Pie — comfort cooked with alibis

Shepherds Pie — you fed me what I’d never buy

But I swallowed it whole till I learned to ask why

Verse 2

Mashed‑up memories, meat‑grind regrets

You seasoned the past with the things you forget

Said it’s “home,” said it’s “love,” said it’s “all you need”

But the flavor hits different when you finally read the recipe

Pre‑Chorus

You said it’d make me stronger

But it made me choke

You called it tradition

But it felt like a joke

Chorus

Shepherds Pie — layered lies in disguise

Shepherds Pie — comfort cooked with alibis

Shepherds Pie — you fed me what I’d never buy

But I swallowed it whole till I learned to ask why

Bridge

Stir it up

Break it down

Scrape the truth

From the bottom now

No more plates

No more shame

I’ll cook my own

And sign my name

Final Chorus

Shepherds Pie — I’m done with the disguise

Shepherds Pie — no more sugar‑coated lies

Shepherds Pie — I’m takin’ back my appetite

’Cause I’m done bein’ fed what you call “doing right”
