Shame On You
words & music by Ryan Hicks
How could you
Be so cruel
To those eyes
That look up to you
Taking it out on them
Means that no one wins
It's this lack of understanding
That you keep on handing
down
Can you not feel
What they go through
Don't you remember
You were there too
And it's happening
All over again
But this time it is you repeating
What you learned with every beating
down
Shame on you
And what you have done
Shame on you
and all of your smoking guns
Shame on you
in your cycle of pain
Shame on you
the stains remain
Numb with fear, your anger shows instead
A violent reaction raging inside your head
Stopping and changing, turning things around
Step out of the shadow thats holding you down
