Avoid The Blame - Cory Wells

Say my name and I’ll play your game

And my demands for all the trouble that you’ve caused

Just take my pain right from my veins

And even if you could, you’d probably fake it, just in case

Can’t make it any other way

When reflections can be so deceiving

I’ve been waiting here and you’re still leaving

You’ve been dragging me down

And I’ve been waiting around for so long

Look at the damage you have done

And I’ll bet you think you’ve won

Just say my name, 'cause I played your game

And I did my best

It was just too little and too late

You push me away, it’s just the price I pay

And I can’t afford it, but I think I’ll try anyway

Can’t make it any other way

When reflections can be so deceiving

And I’ve been drowning here and you’re still breathing

And you’ve been dragging me down

And I’ve been waiting around for so long

Look at the damage you have done

You pray for someone else to come along

And I’ve been waiting here, safe from harm

And I try to promise you that I won’t ever fade

And you just ignore my calls

Avoid the blame

Fuck

And I’ll bet you think you’ve won

And I’ll bet you think you’ve won

And I’ll bet you think you’ve won

Look at the damage you have done

Fuck

And I’ll bet you think you’ve won

I’ll bet you think you’ve won

Then you’ll be pleased to know you’ve won
