Aftertaste – My Name Is Shame

I`m all alone with my thoughts and feeling lonely in this crowded room…just
how close are we to taking this too far?…gaze into the haze and find a
star…it`s who we are
the day I was born they gave me a name
they slapped my ass and called me shame
I try to make a change, but it stays the same
my name is shame
if shame`s a game this game is lame
born to succeed and choose to lose…I was so concrete when so
confused…poker faces beg – amuse us if you can…turning heads is dead…get
beneath our skin
gaze into the haze and find a star…gaze into the haze, it`s who we
are…force a smile only when provoked…showing all your teeth to let them
know…cornered creatures jumping at the chance to self-preserve…the nerve
of self-defense
