Crying Shame

It's such a tired game

Will it ever stop

How will this all play out

Both sides out of mind now



By now, we should know how to communicate

Instead of coming to blows

We're on the road and there ain't no stopping us now

We're burning under control

Isn't it strange how we're all burning

Under the same sun

By now, they say if it's a war for peace

It's the same old game

But do we really wanna blame

We could close our eyes, it's still there

We could say it's us against them

We could try but nobody wins

Gravity has got ahold on us all

We could try to put it out

But it's a growing flame

Using fear as fuel

Burning down our name

And it won't take too long

Cause words are burned the same

Then who are we gonna blame

Now and all



It's such a crying, crying, crying shame

It's such a crying, crying, crying shame

It's such a crying, crying, crying shame

Shame, shame, shame



By now, it's beginning to show

A number of people, their numbers that ain't coming home

I could close my eyes, it's still there

Close my mind, be alone

I could close my heart and not care

But gravity has got ahold on us all

It's a terrific price to pay

But in the true sense of the word

Are we using what we've learned

In the true sense of the word

Are we losing what we were



It's such a tired game

Will it ever stop

It's not for me to say

And is it in our blood

Or is it just our fate

And how will this all play out

Both sides out of my mind now

Who are we gonna blame, all and all



It's such a crying, crying, crying shame

It's such a crying, crying, crying shame

It's such a crying, crying, crying shame
