Do You Believe in Shame? - Allison Iraheta

Do you believe in love?

Do you believe in shame?

And if love can conquer all

Then why do we only feel the pain?

I heard you speak my name

Heard you singing The Stones

Maybe heard you laughing in a line of static

On my telephone

So why your eyelids closed

In a case of rust?

And did you have to change

All your poet’s fire into frozen dust?

I try to justify it

To learn from your mistakes

It was a stupid lie that had to make its point

In such a pointless waste

So come out

Come out

Come out

Come out

Do you believe in shame?

Do you believe in love?

And if they taste the same

Would you love again or abandon both?

I don’t think I ever can

Believe my friend is gone

Keep saying it’s alright, I’m going to bring you back

But I know I’m wrong

There’s nothing left to say

There’s nothing left to do

It’s just that lately I feel so damn lonely

When I think of you

And it may seem selfish now

But I’ll hold on to the memory

Until all these fears are washed away

Do you believe in love?

Do you believe in life?

'Cause I believe a little part of you inside of me

Will never die

'Cause I believe a little part of you inside of me

Will never die

So come out

Come out

Come out

Come out
