Song Title: Shame Game Intro [whispered under the voice of female vocals for entire Intro] Shame… shame… shame… shame…shame…shame…shame…shame [keep whispering quietly under entire Intro section] I said “I do” with stars in my eyes You said “mine” like the deal was signed Love looked pretty in the candlelight Until the invoice came due Verse 1 You loved me soft, then priced every piece Engagement & anniversary, the guitars I used to sing free Sold them when the money got tight Blamed me for bleeding after the birth Said I should’ve bounced right back to work While you never cut your own worth You never sacrificed a single night Just pointed the finger and called it my fault Chorus 1 You made me feel shame… shame… shame To you it was a game… game… game I will never be the same… same… same And you’re to blame… blame… blame You put a price tag on my name… name… name Tried to auction off my veins… veins… veins But I was never for sale… sale… sale And you’re still to blame… blame… blame Verse 2 You floated it like kindness: “Sell your eggs, easy money” Someone else could buy what I already loved A child who’d never know its mother The thought alone made my stomach turn I lived for the ones I already held You only understood what you could sell You offered to pimp me out with a smile Said you’d be bodyguard and boss I looked you dead in the face and said “I am not for sale. Not now. Not ever.” Chorus 2 You made me feel shame… shame… shame To you it was a game… game… game I will never be the same… same… same And you’re to blame… blame… blame You treated love like inventory… inventory Tried to rent out my body… body But I was never for sale… sale… sale And you’re still to blame… blame… blame Verse 3 Hands around my throat, boot in my ribs Head slammed into drywall again You drove me right to the edge Where the only thing left was the kids I stayed longer than I should have Tried to make the marriage look like love Because leaving felt like failure And failure was the only word you’d give me You turned the story, made me the villain Until the mask slipped and they saw the con Verse 4 Then came the night you climbed inside me Forced yourself in while I said no, no, no You tried to kiss me—I turned away Kept saying no while your weight crushed every plea No tenderness, just the ownership you claimed I lay frozen, counting ceiling cracks You took what wasn’t offered Left me hollow, marked, full of quiet rage And still you slept like nothing happened Chorus 4 You made me feel dirty… dirty… dirty Stole the last of my mercy… mercy… mercy I will never be the same… same… same And you’re to blame… blame… blame You forced your way into my name… name… name Tried to claim what screamed in pain… pain… pain But I was never for sale… sale… sale And you’re still to blame… blame… blame Verse 5 Years later the fear still sits in my chest Trust is a door I keep half-closed I am free and I am still alone But free is better than owned My children will never watch that marriage And think that is what love is supposed to be I left so they could see a different ending I am not the girl who stayed for the story I am the woman who walked while it was burning Chorus 5 You left me with the scars… scars… scars But I kept the stars… stars… stars I am freer than I was… was… was And you’re still the cause… cause… cause I rebuilt what you tried to own… own… own Taught my kids a different home… home… home I was never for sale… sale… sale And you’re still to blame… blame… blame Outro I am free I am no longer afraid of you I am still learning the difference Between being loved And being kept But I am not for sale. Not then. Not now. Not ever!! (Final spoken whisper) you will alway be to blame for this shame…this was your game….and your still the same…you should be ashamed!!! But now I’m ending your game………(pause) Game Over Sucker! [Hard Stop]
