Shame on Me

I was feeling a bit emotional today(what else is new, right?). Anyway, I picked up my guitar and started playing this song I wrote back in 2005. It's been probably been almost 4 years since I've played it. It's called "shame on me." I'll avoid the obvious George W. Bush jokes that could follow.

If I told you twice, I told you once.
Sometimes people we mess up.
If you heard me right, you heard me wrong.
I could never be that strong.

So take yourself away from me.
I think you need some time to breathe.
I'm not everything you ask of me.
But I don't pretend to be.

Shame on me, the blames on me.
Pain on me, the blames on me.

You cursed me out and I lost my luck.
I let it ride like an idiot.
Now I'm haunted by your angelic face.
I've got my tongue but I've lost my taste.

I'll take myself away from you.
I think I need some time to breathe.
I couldn't be what you asked of me.
And I know I'll never be.

Shame on me, the blames on me.
Pain on me, the blames on me.
