This track is about the shame and guilt he has received (or possibly hasn’t received) for causing emotional torment to a person.
[Verse 1]
Shame, shame, what kind of man could I be?
Played your mind, played your heart
I played it all for me
Kept you frightened, kept you fighting
For something you would never see
Kept you trying, left you crying
Oh, baby, I could never let you free
[Bridge]
Cry, cry, sing your dying sound
I know I will only bring you down
[Verse 2]
Shame, shame, what kind of man could I be?
Shame, shame, what kind of man could I be?
Kept you frightened, kept you fighting
For something you would never see
Kept you trying, left you crying
But I could never let you free
Shame, shame, what kind of man could I be?
Shame, shame, what kind of man could I be?
[Bridge]
Cry, cry, sing your dying sound
I know I will only bring you down
[Refrain]
Shame, shame, what kind of man could I be?
Shame, shame, what kind of man could I be?
Shame, shame, what kind of man could I be?
Shame, shame, what kind of man could I be?
