Void Contact

Lyrics

Verse 1
We grew up together
We should have had each other's backs
Instead you spent the time telling me what I lacked
So many small resentments add up to bigger lies
And familial concern is a weapon in disguise
Chorus 1
Shame on you
Can’t you see?
This is not the way life is supposed to be
And still I looked to you
for my self-esteem so…
Shame on you, shame on me
Verse 2
So many times you told me why I didn’t measure up
no matter what I did, It was never enough
Still I never learned, I still needed your applause
It took me way too long and too many final straws!
Chorus 2
Shame on you
Can’t you see?
This is not the way life is supposed to be
And still I looked to you
for my self-esteem so…
Shame on you, shame on me
