Ashamed

From Hullabaloo Soundtrack1999

Written by Chris Wolstenholme, Dominic Howard, Matt Bellamy

Lyrics

Ashamed

[Verse 1]

I know there's something that you're dying to tell me

I hope it's not about you in case you love me

[Pre-Chorus]

Make sure that no-one finds out

Tell me all about it

Don't keep it to yourself

Cause I can't bear the thought

I'll never leave you quietly

I know you'll find me

It doesn't matter cause I'm in control

[Chorus]

I know that you're ashamed

So emotional it kills you

Don't you know that you're ashamed

So emotional it kills you

[Verse 2]

There's always something that makes you guilty

There's still something that you're dying to tell me

[Pre-Chorus]

Make sure that no-one finds out

Tell me all about it

Don't keep it to yourself

Cause I can't bear the thought

I'll never leave you quietly
