CHORUS:
I should have been aGshamed
I should have been mortified
I should have hung my head
Dug me a hole and Cclimbed inside
'Cause AmI was able
But the Ccrumbs from the table Dkept me satisGfied
No one should walk this path aAmloneC  
My path of Dloneliness and Gshame
I thought my heart would turn to Amstone
Before our Ceyes   Amand with your Dblessing
CWhat Gmade Amme  Da Gmartyr
What makes B7me your Emoutcast
I just Cwanted to feel something
I just Dwanted to feel something
CHORUS:
But I should have been aGshamed
Yeah, I should have been mortified
I should have hung my head
Dug me a hole and Cclimbed inside
'Cause AmI was able
But the Ccrumbs from the table Dkept me satisGfied
Hot off the press, come get the AmnewsC  
Right from the Dsource of the Gscandal
About the dangers of the Ammuse
And Ctemptations Amtoo great to Dhandle
CWhat Gmade Amme  Da Gmartyr
What makes B7me your Emoutcast
I just Cwanted to feel something
