It's not you, it's me

Info

When I first saw your face

You're the one I want to marry

But it's one sided love

It's not you, it's me


I decided to court you

Met your father, he did not like me

I just showed who I really am

It's not you, it's me


I took the rejection too far

But at least I am still free

Stayed late with my friends every night

It's not you, it's me


I didn't focus on work anymore

And lacked competency

I got fired, what a cliché

It's not you, it's me


I got arrested for a crime

My parents despised me

They did not even visit in jail

It's not you, it's me


In the four walls of this prison

I've been living in pretend bravery

My world is slowly crashing down

It's not you, it's me


In the morning they'll find me hanging

But you should not feel sorry

And please don't blame yourself

It's not you, it's me~
