It's a Shame lyrics

Lately I've been thinking about the past

How there is no holding back

No point in wasting sorrow

On things that won't be here tomorrow

But you and I well we don't need to speak

It's the secret that we keep

Out of view and out of sight

Just say when and we'll say goodnight

Tell me it's okay

To live life this way

Sometimes I want you to stay

I know it's a shame

Now I have spent so much of my time

Going out of my mind

Trying so hard to be of use

But what you cannot gain you lose

In LA, the sun's almost too bright

I cannot get it right

The emptiness I feel

And now none of it seems real

So maybe it's alright

If I just spend the night

Sometimes I just can't bear to walk away

I know it's a shame

Who have I become

Who will I be

Come tomorrow

Tell me it's okay

If I ask you to stay

Sometimes the night cuts through me like a knife

I know it's a shame
