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.



Pre-Chorus

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.

'Cause you're every question's answer

Shame on me.



So clver, but I tripped somehow.

I never guessed you could knock me down.

I am, just a bit undone,

Displaced and I'm burned like fire.



Pre-Chorus

Chorus



Bridge

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 wandering jones,

I'm back but you look right through me.



Chorus
