Ashamed
Location
Hustling, bustling with great sound
Among halls that should be streaming
You see a crowed drawn all around
And hear loud voices ringing
People laugh and people point
At a girl that society had claimed
You didn’t mean to disappoint,
But you scuttled away ashamed
Days weeks and months have passed
‘Til one day you hear the tragic news
She pulled the trigger; is of the past
Yourself sadly, pitifully you accuse
People laugh and people point
At a girl that society had claimed
You didn’t mean to disappoint,
But you scuttled away ashamed
For years you have tried to forget
There were things you could’ve done
Finally you can’t handle the regret
And did the same with that gun
People laugh and people point
At a girl that society had claimed
You didn’t mean to disappoint,
But you scuttled away ashamed -
Now you wish you hadn’t been ashamed.
