Do me a favour, listen for a second and hear me out

Don't tell me how I'm supposed to feel

I know in more ways than one the writing's on the wall

It's not my fault, this isn't real

How are you going to punish me for loving someone

It's just a thing that we all do

How can you tell me not to hold my breath when it comes to love

If I'm the guilty party, so are you

Dressed in purity, but blood red sin's my name

It's not the same

How was I meant to know

You drive past my house, see that I'm still around

Everyone's thoughts, they think of me

How come you're allowed to let go

How are you going to punish me for loving someone

It's just a thing that we all do

How can you tell me not to hold my breath when it comes to love

If I'm the guilty party, so are you

How is it after all this time

I'm still losing, I'm still ruined

And you don't seem to care how I'm doing

How are you going to punish me for loving someone

It's just a thing that some of us do
