And I wish it wasn't my fault
Even the easiest heartaches become unbearable
Tears break and cascade through my already tired eyes
I throw my head back in sardonic laughter at the irony
And I wish it wasn't my fault
Fear chased me out the door
And away from your comforting embrace
Now regret stings and bites at my limbs
Reminding me of all that I took for granted
And of the emptiness that now beats through the heart
And out my lungs
And I wish it wasn't my fault
With your pride hurt you ran too
But the vixen caught you with her seductive hips
And menacing lips
But isolated in a dark and dank room I remain
Humming the song we once sang
And I wish it wasn't my fault
At night I lie cold and broken into glass shards that cover your ceiling
And my façade breaks
And I scream and cry in agonizing pain
In agonizing hate
And I wish it wasn't my fault
Wishes never did come true
That was your area of confounding talent
Shivering from the cold sweat pouring from my skin
From the cold faces swarming around me with disgust
Humming grows to Belting grows to Screeching the song we once sang
My heart crashes and shatters like a broken record
Replaying the righteous act
Replaying the betrayal
Emphasizing the pain
And I wish it wasn't my fault
