Lyrics
My Secret Shame
Chorus:
My secret shame, I don?t even know their names.
Every night, I feel the pain. The pain of knowing what I done.
I hit the road after every seed was sowed
I learned to play the game. A different bar, a different name.
You tell yourself it?s alright. And satisfy your appetite
Then you tell her, she was great. But, you have to go. It?s late.
It?s really not all that hard, when you play the lead guitar.
Girls think you?re a star. And you?re really going far.
They reach out to me to fulfil their fantasies.
Chorus:
My secret shame, I don?t even know their names.
Every night, I feel the pain. The pain of knowing what I done.
I hit the road after every seed was sowed
Lead
The kids look up to me. And think I couldn?t be a better man
If they knew the things, I done. They would turn and run, they wouldn?t understand
It?s so hard to make amends. Cause you can?t undo passed sins.
Chorus:
My secret shame, I don?t even know their names.
Every night, I feel the pain. The pain of knowing what I done.
I hit the road after every seed was sowed
I pray each night. The good Lord takes my life.
And ends the pain. Of my secret shame.
