Blameless

Once more alone

With nothing to show

I was shut out in the cold

Life is unfair

But nobody cares

Everyone's fault but my own

I've always known I'm unlucky

Life always dealt me a blow

Fortune is kind and the fate seemed to smile

On everyone else that I know

I can't be sure I remember

The stories I don't want to tell

Rewrite the past 'cause I find it too hard

The endings don't come out so well

Can't you see it's worse for me?

Try to feel the past

Feel my pain

I won't take the blame

Comfort myself with lies

I'm not going to carry the burden

And face all the pain that I've caused

Burn all my bridges and tear up the past

No matter how fatal the cost

I don't want to think, so pour me a drink

I'll drain every drop in the bar

Try to forget and show no regret

And stare at my half-empty glass

I refuse to face the truth

It's easier to lie

I'll pretend I don't need a friend

And comfort myself with lies

And cover [?] with lies
