'''Zilker Metropolitan Park''' is a public recreation park in Austin, Texas. The park comprises of 350 acres of publicly owned land and is named after Andrew Jackson Zilker, its benefactor, who donated the land to the city in a series of sales in 1917, 1923 and 1931. The proceeds of the sale were donated to a trust dedicated to funding Austin's public shools. The land was developed into a park in 1930s after the Great Depression. A lake named Lady Bird Lake is also located in the park, as is the Barton Springs Pool and the Zilker Zephyr, a 305 mm gauge miniature railway, that carries passengers for a tour around the park. It also houses a disc golf course, volleyball courts, an amphitheatre named "Zilker Hillside Theater", a recreation center and the Zilker Nature & Science Center. The Zilker Botanical Garden is also located at the park.<ref name="wikipzilker">{{cite|title= Zilker Metropolitan Park|desc= Zilker Metropolitan Park on Wikipedia|date=|fetch=2015-01-01|pub=Wikipedia|url=http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zilker_Park|dom=wikipedia.org|type=ext}}</ref> The park hosts the Austin City Limits music festival.<ref name="wikipzilker"></ref>

Muse performed at the festival a total of five times, on four editions, since it's first edition in 2002.

I never needed your cry
I know you love me
It doesn't matter because I'm in control
 
I know that you're ashamed
So emotional that it kills you
Don't you know that you're ashamed?

There's still something that you're dying to tell me

Description

A very loud song with distorted guitars and vocals, quite similar to Agitated and Yes Please. The bass is very predominant in the track, with assorted guitar feedback and very intense drums, much like Hyper Music. The 1997 demo version of "Ashamed" is almost a minute longer and contains a slow bridge towards the end of the track, analogous to that of early live performances of "Assassin". This song heavily borrows from the song "Snakecharmer" by Rage Against the Machine. The outro riff also bears a slight resemblance to the outro riff from "Freedom" by Rage Against The Machine, a riff often covered during live performances.

Additional information

It is possibly about a girl whose partner thinks she is uncertain about the relation but is too ashamed to tell him.

The song uncommonly had some airplay on some Australian rock stations.[2]

Live

Rarely played live, though performed very often as an outro riff during the ending of "Showbiz" on the Showbiz and Origin of Symmetry tours. An example of this can be heard on the Hullabaloo CD and DVD. It was, however, played in full during a few Showbiz-era shows in May and June 2000. It has also been used beginning with the Black Holes and Revelations tour as an outro to "New Born".

I know there's something

That you're dying to tell me I hope it's not about it in case you love me

Make sure no one finds out Tell me all about it Don't keep it to yourself Because I can't bear the thought I never needed your cry I know you love me It doesn't matter because I'm in control

I know that you're ashamed So emotional that it kills you Don't you know that you're ashamed? So emotional that it kills you

There's always something that makes you guilty There's still something that you're dying to tell me

Make sure no one finds out Tell me all about it Don't keep it to yourself Because I can't bear the thought I never leave you crying I know you love me It doesn't matter because I'm in control

I know that you're ashamed So emotional that it kills you Don't you know that you're ashamed? So emotional that it kills you

Demo version

I can tell there's something

That you're dying to tell me I know it's not about you And not about my love

Make sure no one finds out Tell me all about it Don't keep it to yourself Because I can't bear the thought Never leave me crying I know you'll find me I don't matter cause I'm in control

I know that you're ashamed So much that it thrills you Don't you know that you're ashamed? So much that it thrills you

I can tell that you ??? It's still not about my contrary loving

Make sure no one finds out Tell me all about it Don't keep it to yourself Because I can't bear the thought Never leave me crying I know you'll find me I don't matter cause I'm in control

I know that you're ashamed So much that it thrills you Don't you know that you're ashamed? So much that it kills you

Get out of my head Get out of my head Get out of my head Get out of my head

Get out of my head (Don't really know) Get out of my head (Don't really know) Get out of my head (Don't really know) Get out of my head
