Shame

Looking for the words to make things right
The way ahead too blurred; no line of sight
Desperate to break free from the knots I tied
Wanting to erase the times you cried

Looking for a way to start again
Wishing it was still the same as it was then
But time won't reverse; the past can't be healed
Deeds I've done, my fate sealed

Knowing that you can't forgive (shame, shame, shame)
Seeing that your grief and pain will always live
You can't forget you've been betrayed (shame, shame, shame)
The way you see me now can never fade

Tempted by an urge, to try something new
Passion made me blind, to what would ensue
Absorbed in the night with muffled thoughts
Didn't see today, didn't join the dots

I was filled with regret for what I'd done
I was trapped in a web of lies I'd spun
Truth always breaks free, can never be hid
Illuminates all the things you did

Knowing that you can't forgive (shame, shame, shame)
Seeing that your grief and pain will always live
You can't forget you've been betrayed (shame, shame, shame)
The way you see me now can never fade

Absorbed in shame
Only me to blame
Nothing the same
Our past in flames

Absorbed in shame
Only me to blame
Nothing the same
Our past in flames
