Shame carries low, carries low
Shame carries low, carries low
Shame weighs you down, weighs you down
Shame carries low, carries low
I didn’t let go because you did it
But because you couldn’t see it
Shame carries low, carries low
In the bend is not the breaking
In the words is not the meaning
To be seen within the weeping
Is to heal
Even deep inside the fearing
We live our way into believing
Hands were reaching for the taking
Or not there
Shame carries low, carries low
Shame carries low, carries low
Shame weighs you down, weighs you down
Shame carries low, carries low
I didn’t let go because you did it
But because you couldn’t see it
Shame carries low, carries low
