Lyrics
You always have excuses
You tend to find excuses frequently.
There's always something wrong
There's always something that seems to be going wrong in your life.
You're always having problems
You often face problems or challenges.
But no, it's not your fault
You deny responsibility; you avoid admitting fault.
Well maybe I'm just heartless
The speaker considers the possibility that they might lack empathy or compassion.
Or maybe I'm too cruel
Or maybe the speaker is concerned they've been too harsh or unkind.
But I won't stay up waiting
The speaker won't wait around for the person to change their mood or behavior.
For you to change your mood
The speaker doesn't understand why the person won't accept blame just once.
Why can't you take the blame for once
The speaker acknowledges that accepting blame isn't easy.
I know that it's not easy
Recognizing that the other person puts up defenses.
I know you put up your guard
The person admits they are difficult to please.
Yeah, you're right, you can't please me
The speaker doesn't believe they make it too difficult.
But I don't make it that hard
The speaker suggests taking the blame for the situation.
So blame me
The speaker is willing to be blamed.
You never said you're sorry
The person never apologizes until it escalates into a fight.
Until it turns into a fight
The person doesn't seek to change the speaker, yet their actions affect the speaker's peace.
You never want to change me
Hoping for a different outcome in the future despite current difficulties.
But still you keep me up at night
The speaker tries to reassure themselves amidst the chaos.
Tomorrow will be different
The speaker is trying to protect themselves emotionally.
I reassure my shattered mind
Again, questioning why the person won't accept blame at least once.
I'm picking up the pieces
Recognizing the difficulty in accepting blame.
And hide them somewhere you can't find
The person is defensive and struggles to please.
Why can't you take the blame for once
The speaker keeps waiting for a change in the person.
I know that it's not easy
The speaker's faith in the person is diminishing day by day.
I know you put up your guard
Some days, the speaker lacks the strength to continue.
Yeah, you're right, you can't please me
The person is resistant to learning from mistakes.
But I don't make it that hard
Reiterating that the person denies fault and responsibility.
I keep on waiting for you to change
The person acknowledges the difficulty but also acknowledges the other's defenses.
I'm losing faith in you everyday
The person seems resigned to being unable to satisfy the speaker.
Some days I won't have the strength to stay
The speaker believes they don't make it overly challenging.
But still you won't learn
The speaker is willing to be blamed despite the person's reluctance.
No it's not, not your fault
The person doesn't apologize or accept fault.
And no it'll never be
Reiteration that the person refuses to accept fault.
No it's not, not your fault
The person resists accepting blame.
And no it'll never be
Reiteration that the person refuses to accept fault.
I know that it's not easy
The speaker acknowledges the difficulty of accepting blame.
I know you put up your guard
The person is resistant and struggles to please.
Yeah, you're right, you can't please me
The speaker insists they don't make it excessively difficult.
But I don't make it that hard
Willingness to take the blame despite the person's resistance.
So blame me
The speaker reiterates their willingness to be blamed.
