Shame on Me
Vitoria Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴
When you leave me all alone
When you leave me all alone
When you leave me all alone
Hey, do you believe that there’s anything to say
When i’m fighting you babe?
I don't know
You never even loved me and I didn’t have a clue
You’re never gonna do nothing, anything we do
We sit around and watch each other watching the news
And I believe that anything is better than this
And now you wanna tell me that I’ll never exist
Oh my god
I never knew you
Oh my god
You never even knew me
And now we’re sitting here
And staring at each other
And you don’t even have a clue
What’s your name? What’s your sign? What’s your number?
You know, don’t tell me, I won’t even remember
And now you’re sitting here still staring at me
Come on, just say it!
Come on, just say it!
I put myself out there, and you took it for granted
You think you wanna know me but I’m such a romantic
What you need to know is the strategy I have
And I believe that everything you want is what I am
Oh my god
I never knew you
Oh my god
You never even knew me
And now we’re sitting here
And staring at each other
And you don’t even have a clue
Oh my god, would you leave me alone?
I didn’t ask for you to call me on the phone
You fool me once and it’s shame on me
But now you’re leaving me, well it’s shame on me
And now you know me, and now you know my heart
And now you leave me, and now I fall apart
Oh god, when will I find the sense to start
Inside of me, instead of them?
Fight this emptiness inside of me
Oh my god
I never knew you
Oh my god
You never even knew me
And now we’re sitting here
And staring at each other
And you don’t even have a clue
Oh my god would you leave me alone?
I didn’t ask for you to call me on the phone
You fool me once and it’s shame on me
And now you’re leaving me, well it’s shame on me!
And now you know me, and now you know my heart
And now you leave me, and now I fall apart
Oh god when will I find the sense to start
Inside of me, instead of them?
The lyrics to VITORIA's song "Shame on Me" captures the raw emotions of a person who has been repeatedly left alone by someone they cared about. The repetition of the lines "When you leave me all alone" creates a sense of abandonment and longing for connection. The singer questions the validity of any words that may try to mend the relationship when they are constantly fighting and feeling unloved. The realization that the other person never really loved them hits hard, leaving them with a sense of hopelessness and resignation to the situation.
As the lyrics progress, the singer expresses frustration towards the lack of mutual understanding and connection in the relationship. The superficial questions about name, sign, and number highlight the emptiness and detachment in their interactions. The plea for honesty and vulnerability is met with disappointment as the other person remains distant and uncommunicative. The singer acknowledges their own vulnerability and romantic nature, juxtaposed with the other person's lack of emotional depth and interest.
The chorus dives deeper into the feelings of betrayal and hurt, with the repetition of "Oh my god, you never even knew me" emphasizing the painful realization of being unseen and unappreciated. The singer struggles with the shame of being deceived and left behind, questioning when they will find the strength to break free from the cycle of heartbreak and disappointment. The internal conflict between seeking validation from others and finding true fulfillment within oneself is palpable in the lyrics, as the singer grapples with their own emotions and the external circumstances that have led to their current state.
In the final verses, the singer reflects on the aftermath of the relationship, acknowledging the pain of being left behind and the challenge of rebuilding their sense of self-worth. The repeated plea for the other person to leave them alone underscores the need for closure and space to heal. The cycle of being fooled and feeling shame is a recurring theme, highlighting the complexities of human emotions and relationships. The song ends with a poignant question about when they will find the clarity and strength to begin the journey of self-discovery and self-love, rather than relying on others for validation and fulfillment.
