Oh The Shame
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Staring you out
And wearing you down
Yeah it's over now
We can talk about it
The smile in my eyes
Is a simple disguise
I have practised now
Finding my way around
The things that I've done
And who I've become
And oh the shame
I lie and I cheat
And I've turned down my dreams
Because I was too afraid
I wish that somehow
I could see now
All the faces I've betrayed
To women in skin
All of my love
Oh this isn't something I usually do
Or that I'm proud of
I don't play enough
I'm taking the blame
And oh the shame
Oh the shame
Oh my god!
There it is
There it is
I said it
I said it
Yeah
(laugh)
It's just like wetting the bed
Shaving my head
And oh the shame...
