Shame
Breaking Chains: Unmasking Deceit and Rising Above Shame
Lyrics
All that lies and turned up eyes
All the deceitful statements and accusing looks
Stares like they're to blame
Intense gazes that seem as if they are at fault
It seems as though you're trying to control
It appears like an attempt to exert influence or dominance
But you can't trick me this way
Refusing to be deceived or manipulated
Shame, hey, I won't play your game,
Expressing refusal to participate in manipulative actions
Hey, they're driving me away,
Feeling compelled to distance oneself from the situation
Hey, I won't fall for your actions of deceit,
Resisting falling for deceptive behaviors
Driven by your misery and shame
Recognizing actions driven by the person's own misery and shame
Gestures of kindness manipulate for your benefits
Noticing kind actions used to manipulate for personal gain
Acting like you're unaware but it's hard not to miss
Acting oblivious while being aware of the manipulation
Off hand comments fill my head with things I can't explain,
Receiving ambiguous comments that create confusion
Silent sneers and crocodile tears, rolling down the drain
Experiencing hidden disdain and insincere tears
Shame, hey, I won't play your game,
Reiterating the refusal to engage in manipulative games
Hey, they're driving me away,
Feeling pushed away by the deceitful actions
Hey, I won't fall for your actions of deceit,
Persistently resisting deceptive behaviors
Driven by your misery and shame
Acknowledging that the actions are driven by the person's own pain and shame
Yeah I try, not to let it shows, as this felling in my grows
Attempting to conceal the growing emotional turmoil
Subtil words twist the knife with the things that they don't say,
Words with hidden meanings causing emotional harm
Don't want to feel this way I won't feel this way
Refusing to succumb to negative emotions
I won't feel your shame
Declaring independence from the burden of someone else's shame
