It's Not Your Fault

Well, it's not your fault that someone came

Into your life and messed up all your plans

And it's not your fault that you were kind

And nice enough to give a second chance

And it's not your fault that you were strong

And had to be when everyone forgot

I know you pray at night

It's hard for you to still believe in God

It's not a fairy tale, it never was

But a part of you would thought

That if you're hold on for a moment now

That everything would stop

It's true, it took four years from me

I know it now, I'll never get it back

It took me ten thousand hours

Just to kill the man that beat me blue and black

Oh, I was stuck in the middle of heaven and hell

I spent all my cash on alcohol and things I know too well

I took a trip to Mexico but didn't find myself

I came home both broke and empty and the rest I shouldn't tell

It's not your fault that someone came into

Your life and went projecting everything

With every word you said they spin it round missing

The sound of pretty lies they'd sing

It not your fault you miss the company

It's nice enough when anyone is there

Another soul to keep you warm It's not

Your fault that you want someone to care

But it's not your job to calm me down

It's not your job to keep me off the roof

Cause I'll blame anyone and anything

Oh, just to hide the truth, I'm not a fairy tale

I never was, I'm good at blaming you

It's not the answer that I hoped for, but I know it now

It's true, it took four years from me

I know it now, I'll never get it back

It took me ten thousand hours just to kill the man

That beat me blue and black

Oh, I was stuck in the middle of heaven and hell

I spent all my cash on alcohol and things I know too well

I took a trip to Mexico but didn't find myself

I came home both broke and empty and the rest I shouldn't tell

And I was stuck in the middle of heaven and hell

I spent all my cash on alcohol and things I know too well

I took a trip to Mexico and didn't find myself

Came home both broke and empty and the rest I shouldn't tell
