What a Shame
Breaking Habits: A Poignant Journey Through Regret and Redemption
Lyrics
What have I done, tell me where did I go wrong
Expressing regret and confusion about past actions, seeking an explanation for the perceived mistake.
Is it time to say goodbye and justify the truth I know
Questioning if it's time to end a relationship and confront the painful truth that is known.
Promise I'm fine, sure it won't show
Assuring others that everything is fine despite inner turmoil, indicating a desire to hide emotional pain.
State of minds, they spiral out of control
Describing a state of mind that is losing control and spiraling, suggesting inner chaos.
My mistakes are mine to own now, I'm to blame
Taking responsibility for personal mistakes and acknowledging self-blame.
I will bury my excuses, what a shame
Expressing a decision to abandon excuses, acknowledging a sense of shame.
They've been my escape and I've gotta break these habits now
Recognizing the need to break free from destructive habits that served as an escape.
I've been so vacant, trying to escape these hollow sounds
Acknowledging emotional emptiness and the attempt to escape a hollow existence.
This hurt me bad, she hurt me more
Conveying emotional pain caused by someone else.
I could play this game for days, but in the end I'm still not whole
Acknowledging the futility of playing games to fill the emotional void.
Solemnly swear, so out of hand
Swearing solemnly, emphasizing a situation that has gotten out of hand.
Yeah it seems like, I've forgotten who I am
Feeling lost and forgetting one's true identity.
My mistakes are mine to own now, I'm to blame
Reiterating self-blame and the ownership of mistakes.
I will bury my excuses, what a shame
Committing to discard excuses and expressing regret for the past.
They've been my escape and I've gotta break these habits now
Recognizing the necessity to break free from escapist habits.
I've been so vacant, trying to escape these hollow sounds
Describing a persistent emptiness and the attempt to escape it.
This is a cry for help I don't show
Admitting a silent cry for help that is not outwardly expressed.
No empathy for what you don't know
Rejecting empathy for what others do not understand.
I'm done with this, can't run from it anymore
Declaring an end to avoiding or escaping from a situation.
Wipe it all away, and cut the fray that weakens the rope
Expressing a desire to erase everything and remove the elements weakening resolve.
They've been my escape and I've gotta break these habits now
Reiterating the need to break free from destructive habits.
I've been so vacant, trying to escape these hollow sounds
Acknowledging emotional emptiness and the attempt to escape hollow existence.
My mistakes are mine to own now, I'm to blame
Reiterating self-blame and the ownership of mistakes.
I will bury my excuses, what a shame
Committing to discard excuses and expressing regret for the past.
They've been my escape and I've gotta break these habits now
Recognizing the necessity to break free from escapist habits.
I've been so vacant, trying to escape these hollow sounds
Describing a persistent emptiness and the attempt to escape it.

Emphasizing the presence of hollow sounds, potentially representing emotional emptiness or a void.
These hollow sounds
Reiterating the theme of hollow sounds, concluding the expression of emptiness.
