dwindle - coming of age

we are too proud
to reveal our pain
when it came your turn
passed along the shame

cause we were too distracted
to choose between the two
this coming of age
20 years overdue

i am too proud
to admit my shame
when it came my turn
to cast around the blame

cause i was too distracted
to choose between the two
this coming of age
20 years overdue

now i am too distracted
to choose between the two
this coming of age
20 years overdue

[thanks for the correction, i still believe it’s “choose”, to keep more sense in it. but still confusing. and i’m now leaning more to “shame” than to “chain”]
