Dear Shame lyrics

I catch you digging in my trash for stuff I`ve long thrown away. You bring it back on a tray.
And I hear you wheezing in the hall spreading gems and old news.
You always love to confuse.
I flee the light just to live in your shadow. I`m needing mercy and you offer me blame.
Chorus
Dear Shame:
You`re oh so eager to toy with me.
You`re always stealing the joy in me.
You love to whisper my name, Dear Shame, Dear Shame.

You`ve got me living like a bug, crawling in fear. (It`s been a very long year.)
I dream of growing some wings, I think I`m flying away, then you point and you spray.
All my hidden secrets crave the light of forgiveness.
You pull the shades, you accuse and you blame.

Chorus

I fled the light just to live in your shadow. I needed mercy, and you offered me blame.

Chorus
Dear Shame:
I think I`m wise to your strategy. I won`t be needing your company. My name`s eternally clear, Dear Shame, Dear Shame.
