Twelfth Night

Shame
pray
dream breaker
faith healer

shame - who can excuse you
shame - we don't include you
shame - and if we choose to
shame - we will accuse you

shame - who'll understand you
when it comes to the day
who'll rise to save you
shame - when you try to explain
who'll entertain you
when it comes to the day
shame will reject you

doctor reports of a social disease
"it can't afford all the caring it needs"
cover yourself with emotional sham
shame made your bed
now you live and lie
live a lie

when you fall in shame
who'll understand you
when it comes to the day
who will respect you
I'll be there
when you fall
when you fall in shame
shame
when you fall in shame
I'll be there
shame
when you fall
when you fall in shame
I'll be there
shame
when you fall
when you fall in shame
shame
shame
