Caught in the crossroads of emotional vulnerability and self-realization, this track delves into the turmoil of a one-sided relationship. The lyrics paint a vivid picture of someone who has given their all—creating a home in their mind based on promises that were never meant to be kept. Amidst the emotional storm, they grapple with the painful truth: they were deceived into believing in a future their partner never truly desired. The recurring theme of closing eyes to see the imagined home represents clinging to illusions that eventually become their downfall. The phrase "Shame on me" indicates an awakening and acceptance of personal responsibility for staying in a detrimental situation. Ultimately, the song captures the bittersweet journey of breaking free from emotional shackles and regaining one's sense of self.
Shame On Me
Lyrics
If I close my eyes
I can see the home you built
Inside my mind
And I let it
Did you write me off?
Did I care too much?
Can we call this love?
Are we too far gone?
Have we had enough?
You know it's not like you
To go and sugar coat the truth
I see it on your lips
Your midnight trips
What's going on?
So tell me now
Tell me how
I'm breaking down
And you're just fine
If I close my eyes
I can see the home you built
Inside my mind
And I let it
Come to life
Let it set down roots
Where there was once a spine
Shame on me
Behind your walls
Are you listening at all?
Cause if I can't get through
I'm stuck like you
I can't move on
I try and try but if I
Close my eyes
(My eyes)
I can see the home you built
Inside my mind
(Inside my mind I let it)
And I let it
Come to life
(To life)
Let it set down roots
Where there was once a spine
Shame on me
You run away
When you just can't face it
Hide in the dark
But you know you hate it
Made me believe
In a life you didn't want
Shame on me
(Shame on me)
So tell me now
Tell me how
I'm breaking down and you're just fine
If I close my eyes
(My eyes)
I can see the home you built
Inside my mind
(Inside my mind)
And I let it
Come to life
(Come to life)
Let it set down roots
Where there was once a spine
(Was once a spine)
Shame on me
If I close my eyes
I can see the home you built
Inside my mind
And I let it
Did you write me off?
Did I care too much?
Can we call this love?
Are we too far gone?
Have we had enough?
You know it's not like you
To go and sugar coat the truth
I see it on your lips
Your midnight trips
What's going on?
So tell me now
Tell me how
I'm breaking down
And you're just fine
If I close my eyes
I can see the home you built
Inside my mind
And I let it
Come to life
Let it set down roots
Where there was once a spine
Shame on me
Behind your walls
Are you listening at all?
Cause if I can't get through
I'm stuck like you
I can't move on
I try and try but if I
Close my eyes
(My eyes)
I can see the home you built
Inside my mind
(Inside my mind I let it)
And I let it
Come to life
(To life)
Let it set down roots
Where there was once a spine
Shame on me
You run away
When you just can't face it
Hide in the dark
But you know you hate it
Made me believe
In a life you didn't want
Shame on me
(Shame on me)
So tell me now
Tell me how
I'm breaking down and you're just fine
If I close my eyes
(My eyes)
I can see the home you built
Inside my mind
(Inside my mind)
And I let it
Come to life
(Come to life)
Let it set down roots
Where there was once a spine
(Was once a spine)
Shame on me
