"Shame" lyrics

"Shame"

Wound from a kill shot
You never stick around to watch the bomb drop
You don't care who calls you 'cold'
The story's getting old
I swear you'd kill your mother
For a shot at the gold

I'll say 'goodbye' from the curb
Cos you're not coming in
I think you've done enough
Tell yourself it's a win

I'll see you in a few months
When you come back around
Survey the damage
Cos there's nothing and no one to be found

Surround yourself with little victories (oh no, no)
A one-man applause doesn't sound that good to me

And you might think you've got one over me
With your wicked game
But I'm not sad
And once I might've been mad
I just think it's a shame

It's a shame for what it could've been
Had you not have been yourself
But I know how you pass the blame
Cos you can't face it's no one else
What a shame

Shame, shame, shame
Shame, shame, shame
Shame, shame, shame

How do you manage
To turn everyone into collateral damage?
Cos God, it must be lonely
To be your 'one and only'
When you close the front door
And you think of what you had before, and

You might think you've got one over me
With your wicked game
But I'm not sad
And once I might've been mad
I just think it's a shame

It's a shame for what it could've been
Had you not have been yourself
But I know how you pass the blame
Cos you can't face it's no one else
What a shame

Shame, shame
Shame, shame

And you might think you've got one over me
With your wicked game (your wicked game)
But I'm not sad
And once I might've been mad
I just think it's a shame (what a shame!)

It's a shame for what it could've been
Had you not have been yourself (you had to be!)
But I know how you pass the blame
Cos you can't face it's no one else (what a way to be!)
What a shame

(Shame!) What a shame
(Shame!) What a shame
(Shame! Shame!)
What a...
