I'm sorry to say that you don't know me
I'm sad in ways you never understood
Each time I try to tell the ugly truth
You always let it pass you by
You said I'd never tell you a lie
Just because I could
Did you really think I was a bad man?
You always said that that should be my middle name
But you don't know the half of it
You don't know how that name fits
You don't know my hidden shame
Hidden shame, shame, shame
That I can't get free
From the blame and the torture
And the misery
Must it be my secret for eternity?
'Til you know my hidden shame, you really don't know me
Well, there's a different kind of prison
And it don't even have to look much like a cell
It's already on your mind
Boy, we can see it in your eyes
So, here's the bars and walls as well
Well, you know I'm never coming home, babe
You said you'd stand by me until I cleared my name
Sure, it's easy to be strong
When you know the charge is wrong
But the days and weeks get long
When you've got a hidden shame
Hidden shame, shame, shame
That I can't get free
From the blame and the torture
And the misery
Must it be my secret for eternity?
'Til you know my hidden shame, you really don't know me
I had a friend when I was just a boy
We were like brothers, we would run and hide
And we went walking on a high hillside
And I really don't how it happened
He turned to me and had this strange look in his eye
And not a single word was spoken
I must have pushed him, but I don't remember why
And all at once, he lay there broken
And I walked down without him and I didn't even sigh
Hidden shame, shame, shame
That I can't get free
From the blame and the torture
And the misery
Must it be my secret for eternity?
'Til you know my hidden shame, you really don't know me
They say you always hurt the one you love
And I'm not saying if I did or if I didn't
But like my shame, that kind of love is always hidden
They locked me up here for the ideas in my head
They never got me for the thing I really did
Hidden shame, shame, shame
That I can't get free
From the blame and the torture
And the misery
Must it be my secret for eternity?
'Til you know my hidden shame, you really don't know me
Der musikalische text HIDDEN SHAME von JOHNNY CASH ist auch in dem Album vorhanden Boom chicka boom (1990)
Johnny Cash (Kingsland, Arkansas, 26 febbraio 1932 – Nashville, Tennessee, 12 settembre 2003) è stato un cantante, musicista e attore statunitense, considerato uno dei più influenti artisti della musica country. Nato in una famiglia contadina del profondo sud, Cash iniziò a cantare nella chiesa locale e ad ascoltare la musica country alla radio. Dopo il servizio militare in Germania, dove imparò a suonare la chitarra, si trasferì a Memphis e iniziò la sua carriera musicale. Il suo stile unico, caratterizzato da un'intensa voce baritonale e testi spesso autobiografici che affrontavano temi come la povertà, la giustizia sociale e la lotta contro le dipendenze, lo rese rapidamente popolare. Tra i suoi brani più famosi figurano "Ring of Fire", "I Walk the Line", "Folsom Prison Blues" e "A Boy Named Sue". Cash ha collaborato con numerosi artisti, tra cui June Carter Cash, sua moglie dal 1968 fino alla sua morte. Ha vinto numerosi premi, tra cui il Grammy Lifetime Achievement Award nel 1997. La sua musica continua ad essere apprezzata da generazioni di fan in tutto il mondo.
