Shame
Echoes of Longing: Navigating Shadows in Saviour Complex's 'Shame'
Lyrics
I took a walk around the corners of the room
I explored the corners of the room.
It felt so familiar
The room felt familiar to me.
And traced your image from the wall down to the floor
I traced an image of you from the wall to the floor.
I felt a vacancy
I sensed an emptiness or absence.
I've been writing
I have been writing.
And I've been drinking too much
I have been consuming excessive alcohol.
And I've been thinking about you
My thoughts have been occupied by you.
The shame follows you
A feeling of shame accompanies you.
Any time you leave the room
The shame persists when you leave the room.
Yet I still follow you
Despite the shame, I continue to follow you.
I hope you feel my presence
I desire you to sense my presence.
I've been writing
I have been writing.
And I've been drinking too much
I have been consuming excessive alcohol.
And I've been thinking about you
My thoughts have been occupied by you.
And into me, I'm falling
I am falling into myself.
I've been dreaming of you
I have been dreaming about you.
Reaching out to nothing
Attempting to reach out to something that isn't there.
Vacant space
A space that feels empty.
And into me, I'm falling
I am falling into myself.
I've been dreaming of you
I have been dreaming about you.
I'm breaking down, they see it
I am breaking down, and others can see it.
Can't keep pace
I cannot keep up with the pace.
Now every morning there's a moment I savor
Each morning, there is a moment I cherish.
Between my dreams and consciousness
It's a fleeting moment between dreams and waking up.
Where I can almost hear you and feel you
I can almost hear and feel you during this moment.
I live within the seconds I can't grasp
I exist within the brief moments that I can't fully understand.
Where you almost feel real
Where you almost seem real.
And into me, I'm falling
I am falling into myself.
I've been dreaming of you
I have been dreaming about you.
Reaching out to nothing
Attempting to reach out to something that isn't there.
Vacant space
A space that feels empty.
And into me, I'm falling
I am falling into myself.
I've been dreaming of you
I have been dreaming about you.
I'm breaking down, they see it
I am breaking down, and others can see it.
Can't keep pace
I cannot keep up with the pace.
