I kept it quiet so long so don't you blame this on me No don't you blame this on me, no Call this the closest that we'll ever really come to civil war Or we can play it as a bar fight, you decide because I'm not sure I only saw you in the sunlight, the quiet shadow on the floor Following my footsteps, only ever darker than Before we move on, know that I'm done I kept it quiet so long so don't you blame this on me No don't you blame this on me, how dare you blame me at all I know we started all wrong, but don't you blame this on me No don't you blame this on me, how dare you blame me It was the middle of the summer, a night we tried to fall asleep And as I held your hand we both lay there accepting our defeat You were the fresh breeze through the basement You were the closest to a friend And after everything I hope you've found the end is not the end I hope you've found the end is not the end There must be more to this then The end is not the end is not the ending The end is not the end is not And maybe after everything eventually you'll hear me sing About the time when you were all I wanted And everything I'd need I kept it quiet so long so but you blame this on me Maybe one day we can let this resolve
