"waste of shame" lyrics

"waste of shame"

I was at the airport
You were at a bar somewhere
It was seven in the morning
But you said the time was different there

I know you need attention
Now I haven't been around in weeks
So you'd rather be out drinking
Getting played by the pimps and freaks

Well, there is no one to blame
In your place I might've done the same
Isn't love such a waste of shame

Hanging out my hotel window
And the city lights were flashing red
Like a warning sign above my head
I chose the company of fools instead

And you were at your sisters place
Couldn't bare to dream alone that night
Had to force my demons to the light
When you knew that something wasn't right

Well, there was no one to blame
In my place you might've done the same
Isn't love such a waste of shame

Alas we are happy and calm
Alas we are sad and quiet
Happy because we love
Sad because love is a curse

I was at the airport
You were at a bar somewhere
It was seven in the morning
Guess the time is always different when

There's no one left to blame
Now our scars will never heal the same
Isn't love such a waste of shame
