Such a shame to believe in escape, a life on every face 
And that's a change till I'm finally left with an 8
Tell me to relax, I just stare 
Maybe I don't know if I should change
A feeling that we share

It's a shame, such a shame, number me with rage
It's a shame, such a shame, number me in haste
Such a shame, this eagerness to change 
It's a shame

The dice decides my fate and that's a shame 
In these trembling hands
My faith tells me to react, I don't care
Maybe it's unkind if I should change 
A feeling that we share

It's a shame, such a shame, number me with rage
It's a shame, such a shame, number me in haste
Such a shame, this eagerness to change 
Such a shame

Tell me to relax, I just stare 
Maybe I don't know if I should change
A feeling that we share

It's a shame, such a shame, number me with rage
It's a shame, such a shame, number me in haste
It's a shame, such a shame, write across my name
Such a shame - this eagerness to change
Such a shame
