Shame

She breathes fire and she don't care
She gets higher and we all stare
I dig the grave but she fills it
She's a drug for a dumb boy
And he needs more cocaine to kiss with

And it's such a shame
Cause you know she tries but just can't kick it
And it's such a shame
Cause you know she tries but just can't kick it

Anticipate a constant effort to keep you safe
Whether you like it or you don't
The future's bleak, what do you think that means to me
I would go too far in a heartbeat

And it's such a shame
Cause you know she tries but I don't get it
And it's such a shame
Cause you know she tries but I don't get it

And oh, Good God, what am I gonna do today
Do I pull back on silence, the sheet, the way she prays
Oh sweet lord how do I get through the day
Do I pull back the curtain, reveal the face

My eyes are drained of it's color
I shut down love for my mother
I fill both longs and you disappear

My brain is stunned by the night light
My body finds a place to lie
I guess his bed will do tonight

And it's such a shame
Cause I know they try but I just can't see them

And it's such a shame
Cause I know they try but I just can't leave him
