Blame

I can take the blame
It was never a game
To make it cleaner
Please see the way clearer

I can’t leave you now
You won’t even know how
Keep your mind stiller
Hearts seek to find filler

If you let me go
I’ll let you know
How it feels alone
To take the blame, and feel the same
If you let me go
I’ll let you know
How it feels to be alone

I can take the shame
More my share of the pain
You’re still all alone
With thoughts easily known

Put your hate on me
If it can set you free
To share the bitter
If you can feel better

You’re out on your own
Nothing ties you to home
The world will not change
You can still feel the same

If you let me go
I’ll let you know
How it feels alone
To take the blame, and feel the same
If you let me go
I’ll let you know
How it feels to be alone

I’m willing to go
You have to let me know
We can find a way
There’s only that one day

If you hold me down
I know I can still drown
I can’t be the sign
Reminder of what died

If you let me go
I’ll let you know
How it feels alone
To take the blame, and feel the same
If you let me go
I’ll let you know
How it feels to be alone

The malice you find
It’s not easy to hide
Something yours to keep
Nothing to do with me

If you reach a day
Where you find your way
I can find you then
For forgiveness to bend

If you let me go
I’ll let you know
How it feels alone
To take the blame, and feel the same
If you let me go
I’ll let you know
How it feels to be alone
