Shifting The Blame
It’s been a long time now since we were together,
And there’s not a chance that I’d take you back ever,
But even though I feel no love toward you,
My head’s still messed up from what you put me through.
It’s hard to recall a diminished emotion,
But I loved you more than could ever be spoken.
I showed you devotion, I gave you the ocean,
In return I got lies and my heart you left broken.
But after all you did I’m still not gonna name and shame you,
I still hate you but that doesn’t make it fair to blame you,
For my downward spiral, you may have been the ignition,
But you never meant to send me on this path of demolition,
Yeah I really should’ve listened, to the older generation,
When they told me that my body needs more than just stimulation.
Some tell me I’m still young and in my current situation,
I’m coping pretty well, but they don’t see the deviation.
A mask made from enthusiasm worn as a disguise,
A sense of humour made from wool to pull over their eyes,
A costume in which every wear a small part of me dies,
In the mirror I see no reflection, only lies.
I don’t blame you for the way things are turning out,
It’s not your fault that I’m just days from burning out,
But you unleashed hatred in me that I never knew was there,
I gave you everything I had, you never even cared.
I keep on saying I don’t blame you but deep down I do,
Because it’s easier to shift the blame than face the truth.
