Shame

Though I am weak Sometimes weary In times of trial I hide my face In the balance Judge me wholly Please don't judge me By my shame In dark hours Of confrontation When words may fall Too soon to unsay Don't mistake them For my true meaning They are measures Of my shame I have tried to Live life humbly Not a coward Not in vain When my meekness Overcomes me Remember me Not my shame Not my shame I am small And self-conscious Every mirror Reflects the grain Judge my essence By my kinships Remember me Not my shame I am weak Sometimes weary Sometimes small I hide away When my hours Are all accounted Please don't bind me To my shame I have tried to Live life humbly Not a coward Not in vain When my meekness Overcomes me Remember me Not my shame Not my shame (Repeat)
