Shouldn't Be Ashamed Lyrics - A.m. - Wilco

To live without a savior, answer to his name 

Shouldn't be afraid, shouldn't be ashamed 

Like a kid behind the counter remembering your name 

Shouldn't be afraid, shouldn't be ashamed 

If it's not like I told you, then it's still your call 

You should live how you want, stay with me, we should stay apart 

Just shouldn't ever have to be this hard 

Like a man on the sidewalk remembering your face 

Shouldn't look away, shouldn't be afraid 

He remembers when they still wore gaiters, World War One 

Shouldn't be afraid, shouldn't be ashamed 

If it's not like I told you, then it's still your call 

You should live how you want, stay with me, we should stay apart 

Just shouldn't ever have to be this hard
