(Verse 1) 
 
Stepped on the floorboard, 
Fell into basement again. 
Walls heavy lift off, 
Earthquakes the house of our sins. 
Where is the door? 
Will I stay here forevermore? 
You look down, laugh right at me, 
I hold my breath, scream inside some more. 
 
(Chorus) 
 
For shame; 
You watch me through your window panes. 
Carefully studying my every move, 
Why I cared for you, 
Hard to explain. 
 
For shame; 
To you it’s all just a fun game. 
But others you hurt for fun, 
Looks like throughout this you’ve won, 
Making me come undone. 
For shame. 
 
(Verse 2) 
 
Mystery why you had to leave, 
Is still beyond me. 
That house may have been a trap, 
But the people they at least loved you back. 
 
And I’ll be the first one, 
To get shit for this song. 
But just know I care. 
 
And I’m sad you don’t see, 
And it’s still because me, 
That you weren’t there. 
 
(Chorus) 
 
For shame; 
You watch me through your window panes. 
Carefully studying my every move, 
Why I cared for you, 
Hard to explain. 
 
For shame; 
To you it’s all just a fun game. 
But others you hurt for fun, 
Looks like throughout this you’ve won, 
Making me come undone. 
For shame. 
 
For shame, 
I didn’t even know his name. 
But you tried to fool me in letting you out, 
Of that box now my drought, 
Is pouring rain. 
Oh, for shame! 
 
(Bridge) 
 
Your sorry’s extra, 
I betcha, 
That she wouldn’t let ya, 
Drive her own motor, 
He’s scared of devotion. 
 
My best friend, 
It’s the end,
