Crying Shame lyrics

[Chorus 1]

It's such a tired game

Will it ever stop?

How will this all play out

Out of sight, out of mind

[Verse 1]

By now we should know how to communicate

Instead of coming to blows, We're on a roll

And there ain't no stopping us now

We're burning under control

Isn't it strange how we're all burning under the same sun?

[Chorus 2]

Buy now and save, it's a war for peace

It's the same old game

But do we really want to play?

We could close our eyes it's still there

We could say it's us against them

We could try but nobody wins

Gravity has got a hold on us all

We could try to put it out, but it's a growing flame

Using fear as fuel

Burning down our name

And it won't take too long

Words all burn the same

And who are we going to blame now?

It's such a crying shame [x3]

Shame, shame, shame

[Verse 2]

By now it's beginning to show

A number of people are numbers that aren't coming home

I could close my eyes it's still there

Close my mind be alone

I could close my heart and not care

But gravity has got a hold on us all

It's a terrific price to pay

But in the true sense of the word

Are we using what we've learned?

In the true sense of the word

Are we losing what we were?

[Chorus 1]

[Chorus 2]
