Lyrics

Mea Culpa

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

Hey, hey

(Mea culpa)

I guess I should have known

You were gonna be the one to hurt me (hurt me)

I never thought that it would be so easy (easy)

I used to think that I was strong

I guess I should have been

Better at pretending nothing's wrong (wrong)

'Cause even rhythm can't disguise a sad, sad song (sad song)

Even you could only help me for so long

I did it to myself

But it's just like everything else that I ever do (mea culpa)

I did to myself

And the worst part of it all, I can't even blame you (mea culpa)

Did it to myself

Did it to myself

(Mea culpa)

I guess that I've been lying

I told myself I'm not alone but here I am (here I am)

I thought I didn't care but now I give a damn (damn)

Promises I've made and rights that I've made wrong

I did it to myself

But it's just like everything else that I ever do (mea culpa)

I did to myself

And the worst part of it all, I can't even blame you (mea culpa)

I did it to myself

I'm the one who turned into someone I never knew (mea culpa)

I did it to myself

I never thought I'd self-destruct the way that people do

But I did it to myself

Did it to myself

(Mea culpa)

Hey, hey

I did it to myself

But it's just like everything else that I ever do (mea culpa)

I did to myself

And the worst part of it all, I can't even blame you (mea culpa)

I did it to myself

I'm the one who turned into someone I never knew (mea culpa)

I did it to myself

I never thought I'd self-destruct the way that people do

But I did it to myself

Did it to myself

(Mea culpa)

Did it to myself
