I'm emptied out like a dusty shelf
You buried me-and I'm covered in shame
I'm here but you look right through me
Bridge
Just hear me out for what it's worth
You still rip my breath away
I've come around
I know you've heard it before
And again and again...
Chorus
Shame on me shame on me
It's bittersweet but I'm so sorry
It took so long but you believed
(I'm sorry it took so long)
Shame on me...shame on me...
Because you're every questions answer
Shame on me
So clever -but I tripped somehow
I never guessed you could knock me down
I am just a bit undone
Displaced and burned like fire
Bridge & Chorus
I didn't get it I never wanted to
My self destructive attitude said
What did you want
And why would you want it at all?
But you never went away
You faded out but it took so long
It's tainted
How could I let this slip away from me
For a wondering jones
I'm here but you look right through me...
Chorus
It's over and I'm overwhelmed I'm emptied out like a dusty shelf You buried me-and I'm covered in shame I'm here but you look right through me Bridge Just hear me out for what it's worth You still rip my breath away I've come around I know you've heard it before And again and again... Chorus Shame on me shame on me It's bittersweet but I'm so sorry It took so long but you believed (I'm sorry it took so long) Shame on me...shame on me... Because you're every questions answer Shame on me So clever -but I tripped somehow I never guessed you could knock me down I am just a bit undone Displaced and burned like fire Bridge & Chorus I didn't get it I never wanted to My self destructive attitude said What did you want And why would you want it at all? But you never went away You faded out but it took so long It's tainted How could I let this slip away from me For a wondering jones I'm here but you look right through me... Chorus Explain Request ×
