AGAINST ME!

AGAINST ME! - Because Of The Shame lyrics

rate me

We used to get high together

Instead of getting high alone

Can't remember the last time I saw you

Can't remember the last time we talked

You left home for a fresh start

Working as a waitress down in Bradenton

With my name tatooed into your skin

Because of the shame I associate with vulnerability

I am numbing myself completely

Can you hear me right now

I watched your mother bury you today

With tears in her eyes

It wasn't her words that shook me

But the resemblence you shared

Don't it seem so detached and unreal

Don't it seem so far away

Like the past never happened

Like nothing's ever changed

With your casket open in front of me

Your eyes closed and your lips silent

My name tatooed into your skin

Because of the shame I associate with vulnerability

I am numbing myself completely

Can you hear me right now

I watched your mother bury you today

With tears in her eyes

It wasn't her words that shook me

But the resemblence you shared

Didn't listen to the preacher

Couldn't look your husband in the eye

I'm not sure what I meant to you then

So I'm not sure what I owe you now

But if something I said hurt you

I swear it was not my intention

With your name tatooed into my skin

With your name tatooed into my skin

Because of the shame I associate with vulnerability

I am numbing myself completely

Can you hear me right now

I watched your mother bury you today

With tears in her eyes

It wasn't her words that shook me

But the resemblence you shared

It wasn't her words that shook me

But the resemblence you shared

Can you hear me right now

Can you hear me right now
