Is It The Shame?

Is It The Shame?

Lies left your heart bleedin’ baby
To many ties drove you crazy
Those lonely nights were you all alone
Locked up in the cold?

Try hard as you might to forgive him
You’re set on your sight, so you’re leavin’
Your fear is your fate cause you’re so afraid
To face the unknown

It’s only human nature
To make a mistake
Even though leaving’s to late
Should you still try to run away

Is it the Shame, makes you love to much
Is it the Shame, that brings you down
Is it the Shame, that can spark your light
Is it the Shame, that makes you stay
It’s a cryin’ shame

Your love has died, turned to stone gray
You live a lie still believin’
The good that died, it’s still breathin’
Takin’ your breath away

Look to the future baby
There’s brighter days
Don’t be the one who’s losin'
Even the score right away

Is it the Shame, that’ll lock you up
Is it the Shame, that'll brings you down
Is it the Shame that'll spark your light
Is it the Shame, keeps you around
It’s cryin’ shame

Solo

Better get movin’ baby
It’s time for the switch
You can relieve your tension by
Doin’ him in

Is it the Shame, that’ll lock you up
Is it the Shame, that'll bring you down
Is it the Shame, that can spark your light
Is it the Shame, that keeps you around
Is it the Shame, that’ll dry your eyes
Is it the Shame, that’ll make you alright
Is it the Shame, that’ll hurt your head
Is it the Shame, that’ll leave you for dead
It’s a cryin’ shame
