Crying Shame

[Intro] It's such a tired game Will it ever stop? How will this all play out Of sight, out of mind now [Verse 1] By now we should know how to communicate Instead of coming to blows, We're on a roll 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? Buy now and save, it's a war for peace It's the same old game But do we really want to play? 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 a hold on us all [Pre-Chorus 1] 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 all burn the same And who we're gonna blame now in all? [Chorus] 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 [Verse 2] By now it's beginning to show A number of people are 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 a hold 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? [Pre-Chorus 2] 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? Of sight, out of mind And who we're gonna blame all in all? [Chorus] It's just a crying, crying, crying shame It's such a crying, crying, crying shame It's such a crying, crying, crying shame, shame, shame
