Shambles Lyrics by Della Mae

Della Mae

2015

[Verse 1]
I left through the door when I left all the lies
Well, you figure out and it won't happen twice
My feeling on faith is that I call the shots
And when it all goes to hell, I just connect the dots
[Chorus]
Why do you say you're sorry, baby
When I'm finally up and gone
Well, I leave it to you
To make sense of the shambles
You made of yourself
While I carried on
[Verse 2]
Sometimes when I pour myself too much to drink
Yes, like novocaine on the place where I think
And the devils I'm fighting don't seem to mind
When they get knocked down
They just get back in line
[Chorus]
Why do you say you're sorry, baby
When I'm finally up and gone
Well, I leave it to you
To make sense of the shambles
You made of yourself
While I carried on
[Verse 3]
Now, do you think for a moment that I'll be your fool
That I'll let you down easy, give in to your rules
Woah, you played the joker and thought I would lie
But it's too late now to apologize
[Chorus]
Why do you say you're sorry, baby
When I'm finally up and gone
Well, I leave it to you
To make sense of the shambles
You made of yourself
While I carried on
[Chorus]
Why do you say you're sorry, baby
When I'm finally up and gone
Well, I leave it to you
To make sense of the shambles
You made of yourself
While I carried on
[Outro]
Oh, you made of yourself
While I carried on
