DEPECHE MODE
- Shame Lyrics / with translationsDo you ever get that feeling
When the guilt begins to hurt
Seeing all the children
Wallowing in dirt
Crying out with hunger
Crying out in pain
At least the dirt will wash off
When it starts to rain
Soap won't wash away your shame
Do you ever get that feeling
That something isn't right
Seeling your brother's fists
Clenched ready for the fight
Soon the fighting turns to weapons
And the weapons turn to wounds
So the doctors stitch and stitch
And stitch and stitch and stitch
And stitch and stitch
Surgery won't improve your pain
It all seems so stupid
It makes me want to give up
But why should I give up
When it all seems so stupid
Do you ever get that feeling
That something can be done
To eradicate this problems
And make the people one
Do you ever get that feeling
Something like a nagging itch
And all the while the doctors
Stitch and stitch and stitch
And stitch and stitch
Hope alone won't remove the stains
Shame.
When the guilt begins to hurt
Seeing all the children
Wallowing in dirt
Crying out with hunger
Crying out in pain
At least the dirt will wash off
When it starts to rain
Soap won't wash away your shame
Do you ever get that feeling
That something isn't right
Seeling your brother's fists
Clenched ready for the fight
Soon the fighting turns to weapons
And the weapons turn to wounds
So the doctors stitch and stitch
And stitch and stitch and stitch
Surgery won't improve your pain
It all seems so stupid
It makes me want to give up
But why should I give up
When it all seems so stupid
Do you ever get that feeling
That something can be done
To eradicate this problems
And make the people one
Do you ever get that feeling
Something like a nagging itch
And all the while the doctors
Stitch and stitch and stitch
And stitch and stitch
Hope alone won't remove the stains
Shame.

When we interpret the meaning being expressed, the Depeche Mode song "Shame" goes to the core of emotions like guilt, helplessness, and frustration that come with seeing the suffering and conflicts around us. The lyrics draw a parallel between the never-ending societal issues that actually keep on existing despite the efforts made to solve them and the futile attempts to wash shame away and heal wounds. At the same time, they are even more directly questioning the giving-up policy in relation to the mountains of difficulties that look already insurmountable. The main lyrics of 'Shame' are pretty much about despair, angst, social commentary, reflection, and anger. By means of these phrases, the song draws the picture of the moral issues, the fears and the divisions in society, the hopelessness and the human understanding, and the desire for change. There are certainly themes of pain, violence, and social problems in the lyrics, which, depending on the context, might not be appropriate for very young kids; therefore, parental guidance is recommended. On the other hand, there are no swearing, nudity, or drug use contained in the song.
