The One to Blame

You are the one who called my name,

I was like a moth to the flame.

I followed your lead from the start,

In retrospect, it wasn't smart.

But I got caught up in your game.

I should've listened to my gut, "Don't go down that rabbit hole!"

I should've left that closed door shut, "You're about to lose control!"

Everything after is a blur, Your poison doesn't have a cure.

I'll never get back what you stole.

You are the one who broke my world to pieces,

All the words you spoke infected like diseases,

Everything you promised was as empty as your actions because,

You're the one to blame.

You are the one who looked me straight in my eyes,

But every single promise that you made me were lies.

The only thing I ever wanted from you was

The truth and that's why you're the one to blame.

You made me believe it was real,

You showed me I could learn to feel.

Sometimes I thought you felt it too,

Thought I saw a soul when I looked in you,

That soul was mine you tried to steal.

You sold an artificial heart! (I never once had lied to you!)

Did you have this planned from the start?

(Toss me aside as soon as you were through.)

I just don't know what I had done, To aid and abet your hit and run,

What part of your fiction was true?

You are the one who broke my world to pieces,

All the words you spoke infected like diseases,

Everything you promised was as empty as your actions because,

You're the one to blame.

You are the one who looked me straight in my eyes,

But every single promise that you made me were lies.

The only thing I ever wanted from you was

The truth and that's why you're the one to blame.

You are the reason for all we never had, You're the one to blame.

All that we could've been before it all went bad, You're the one to blame.

You are the one who broke my world to pieces,

All the words you spoke infected like diseases,

Everything you promised was as empty as your actions because,

You're the one to blame.

You are the one who looked me straight in my eyes,

But every single promise that you made me were lies.

The only thing I ever wanted from you was

The truth and that's why you're the one to blame.

Now as I am looking back, I realize that...

"I'm" the one to blame.

I should not have gone that far, 'Cause it changed who we are, and

I'm the one to blame.

I am the reason for all we never had.

I'm the one to blame.

All that we could have been,

before it went bad.

I'm the one to blame.

I am the one who broke our world to pieces,

All the words I spoke infected like diseases,

Everything I promised was as empty as my actions because,

I'm the one to blame.

I am the one who looked you straight in your eyes,

But every single promise that I made you were lies.

The only thing I ever wanted from myself was

you and that's why I'm the one to blame.
