Taking The Blame
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.
Step out of the cross fire, cause you know it's my place
To take all the bullets and save you from your fall from grace
Just like a personal punch bag, for your stiff upper lip
For better, for worse i'm your love i'm your curse
I'm your freudian slip
I'm taking the blame, taking the blame
Taking the shame, out on my name
I've given you time, given you all that is mine
I just can't get enough when you're beating me blind
Beating me blind til i'm cripped inside
Write out your reasons, with a knife to my skin
I'm so easy to please when i'm down on my knees
You're a war within
And i'm out of control, out of control
You're burning a hole, burning it all
I've given you time, given you all that is mine
I just can't get enough when you're beating me blind
I'm taking the blame, taking the blame
Taking the shame, out on my name
I've given you time, given you all that is mine
Given you all that is mine
I'm out of control, out of control
You're burning a hole, burning it all
Given you time, given you all that is mine
I just can't get enough
