Dear Shame (Not Ashamed Album Version)

Dear Shame (Not Ashamed Album Version) - Newsboys

I catch you digging in my trash

For stuff I've long thrown away

You bring it back on a tray

And I hear you wheezing in the hall

Spreading gems and old news

You always love to confuse

I flee the light just to live in your shadow

I'm needing mercy and you offer me blame

Dear Shame

Oh so eager to toy with me

You're always stealing the joy in me

You love to whisper my name

Dear Shame

Dear Shame

You've got me living like a bug

Crawling in fear

It's been a very long year

I dream of growing some wings

I think I'm flying away

Then you point and you spray

All my hidden secrets

Crave the light of forgiveness

You pull the shades

You accuse and you blame

Dear Shame

You're oh so eager to toy with me

You're always stealing the joy in me

You love to whisper my name

Dear Shame

Dear Shame

I fled the light just to live in your shadow

I needed mercy and you offered me blame

Dear Shame

You're oh so eager to toy with me

You're always stealing the joy in me

You love to whisper my name

Dear Shame

Dear Shame

Dear Shame

I think I'm wise to your strategy

I won't be needing your company

My name's eternally clear

Dear Shame

Dear Shame
