Steve Lukather - Tears Of My Own Shame Lyrics

Queen of Hearts
and Sister Vanity.
Took me by the hand to show me royalty.
In this castle so many things to see.
And all I could become,
a knight wasted away.

{Chorus:}
I said Ooh ooh...it's not any thing you did to me.
It's not what you made me feel I did to you.
I cry, angry that I played the fool.
For these are the tears of my own shame.

Even just a page I never thought to read.
And the writing on the wall became a tapestry.
The blues I felt, the reds they blinded me.
And all the greens only taught me jealousy.

{Chorus}

And I am not what I care to be.
And she is not what I came to see.
And like some Shakespearean tragedy.
That in the end I have to question...finally.
