Shame Lyrics

How do you hold me

In eternal pleasure?

But now, the beauties of bodies

I struggle to treasure

I know that we are partners

You’re not going anywhere

I know that I enjoy you

But in quantities of care

What would my mother say?

Does that matter anyway?

Ooooo Shame

Life is too short

Life is too short

Oh it’s so short

to waste away

A cup of tea in rehab

Thinking I’m on the outside

These gremlins that we have

I swear the choice isn't mine

I'm in love with possibility

A beauty from afar

To admit to my fragility

And make songs from these scars

What would my mother say?

Does that matter anyway?

Ooooo Shame

Life is too short

Oh it’s so short

to waste away

I bicker with myself

The will in my head, the desires of my gut

And only I can help

Who’s making the mess, and who’s cleaning it up?

What would my mother say?

Does that matter anyway?

Ooooo Shame

Ooooo Shame

Ooooo Shame

Life is too short

Life is too short

Oh it’s so short

to waste away
