[Verse 1]

I took the blame

Like I'm the one that made you lie right to my face

At 4 a.m. when you showed up to wreck the place

Saying I'm the reason that you act this way

Yeah, I took the blame


[Verse 2]

And it took a minute

To realize where my life was headed with you in it

I thought we'd always end up in a happy ending

But love ain't throwing rings and breaking dirty dishes

Nah, girl, it isn't


[Pre-Chorus]

When you lie to yourself so much

You don't know what's true, ooh

Like when it finally fell through

And you said, "It ain't me, it's you"

Ain't that the truth?


[Chorus]

It was always you saying I'm the problеm

Look around, only one of us has got 'em

I've been finе since you said goodbye

You're going outta your mind 'cause you're out of mine

Ain't it crazy how crazy follows you around?

Blame me if that's what you wanna do, yeah

It ain't hard to see, looking at our history

Between you and me, it was always you


[Verse 3]

It was always me

Believing everything you said was wrong with me

You tore me down at every opportunity

Maybe I was just a little company for your misery, yeah


[Pre-Chorus]

Why did it take so long for me to see?

It was always you and it was never me


[Chorus]

It was always you saying I'm the problem

Look around, only one of us has got 'em

I've been fine since you said goodbye

You're going outta your mind 'cause you're out of mine

Ain't it crazy how crazy follows you around?

Blame me if that's what you wanna do, yeah

It ain't hard to see, looking at our history

Between you and me, it was always you


[Bridge]

Saying I'm the bad guy

Just 'cause you feel it makes it real, isn't that right?

But I was never that guy

You're the only one still believing your lies

Oh woah, still believing your lies, yeah


[Chorus]

It was always you saying I'm the problem

Look around, only one of us has got 'em

I've been fine since you said goodbye

You're going outta your mind 'cause you're out of mine

Ain't it crazy how crazy follows you around?

Blame me if that's what you wanna do, yeah

It ain't hard to see, looking at our history

Between you and me, it was always you


[Outro]

It was always you
