Shame

Another random hotel room
Another name I won't remember, yeah
I beg her to say: I love you
Take a page out The Great Pretender, yeah
And it's so good when she lies to me
For a second, it's just like the real thing
Then comes emptiness waitin' so faithfully
So maybe my heart
Just doesn't work 'cause I still feel nothin', hey
If pillows could talk
How many faces would they say have touched them?
Oh, yeah

Oh, shame, shame, shame
Shame on me, shame on myself
Maybe my heart just ain't built for lovin', fuck 'em
I'm so good at sayin' what she wanna hear
Makin' promises I won't deliver, yeah
Then I turn around and disappear
Just another woman I turned bitter, oh
Thank God alcohol is so beautiful
Swear it loves me, the feelin' is mutual
But we're both empty as usual

Maybe my heart
Just doesn't work 'cause I still feel nothin', hey
If pillows could talk
How many faces would they say have touched them?
Oh, yeah
Oh, shame, shame, shame
Shame on me, shame on myself
Maybe my heart just ain't built for lovin', fuck 'em
And I don't give a damn what the mirror say
'Cause she's still in my brain, oh
Only way I know how to replace the pain
What'd you do to me, baby?
Maybe my heart just doesn't work, still I feel nothing

Maybe my heart
Just doesn't work 'cause I still feel nothin', hey
If pillows could talk
How many faces would they say have touched them?
Oh, yeah
Oh, shame, shame, shame
Shame on me, shame on myself
Maybe my heart just ain't built for lovin', fuck 'em
