Aaron Robeson - Isn't It a Shame Lyrics

Isn't it a shame
We lost ourselves in thought
We went a bit too deep
Without coming up for air
And if all I have to show for these years
Are forgotten dreams and memories of you
And if all we are are fractals of parts
I'll learn to live with a failing heart
And I'll scar their fragile minds
With hope so hard to find
So they'll learn their place in time
Fallen victims to the grind
And we know too much to learn
Of our slavery to the need
We just calmly wait our turn
Until the monster needs to feed
Let it out right now, let it out right now
I'll answer your questions with questions and find my way out
Give it up right now, give it up right now
The witness is speaking in tongues and it's wasting our time
Isn't it a shame
We lost ourselves in thought
We went a bit too deep
Without coming up for air
And if all we are are monsters of men
We'll just cut the ties to our closest friends
And I know with time I'll fail you again
But until then
All we can do, all we can do
Is hope for something better
Hope that something better comes along
All we can do, all we can do
Is hope for something better
Hope that something better comes along
And I'll scar their fragile minds
With hope so hard to find
So they'll learn their place in time
Fallen victims to the grind
And we know too much to learn
Of our slavery to the need
We just calmly wait our turn
Until the monster needs to feed
Let it out right now, let it out right now
I'll answer your questions with questions and find my way out
Give it up right now, give it up right now
The witness is speaking in tongues and it's wasting our time
Let it out right now, let it out right now
I'll answer your questions with questions and find my way out
Give it up right now, give it up right now
The witness is speaking in tongues and it's wasting our time
