Play the Victim
Go
Just Go Away
You’re driving me Insane
Go
Just Go Away
You just bring me pain
And I’m drowning
Drowning in your words
And I dreamed of you
Thinking of the truth
I gave you everything
Yet it was nothing at all
You sure knew how to point the blame
Leaving me in shame
So just play
Play the victim
Just how you showed me
Point
Point the blame
Cause we all know
I was always wrong
Pretend like I didn’t give you
Give you everything
Guess it meant nothing
Nothing at all
I showed you love, my dear
Still you always lived in fear
I saw the pain in your heart
Wanting to give you a brand new start
Tried to carry the weight of it all
Still you managed to fall
So just play
Play the victim
Just how you showed me
Point
Point the blame
Cause we all know
I was always wrong
Pretend like I didn’t give you
Give you everything
Guess it meant nothing
Nothing at all
Maybe the lost
Won’t always be found
I threw out the life line
Still you said you'll be fine
It’s so sad to see
What you chose to be
I’ll watch from a distance
As your life falls to pieces
Don’t you ever say
I never gave you the time of day
I gave my everything
But it was nothing
Now I’m done
Just drown in your decisions
I’ll forever be the lighthouse
That never shined for you
For you
So just play
Play the victim
Just how you showed me
Point
Point the blame
Cause we all know
I was always wrong
Pretend like I didn’t give you
Give you everything
Guess it meant nothing
Nothing at all
Go ahead and play
Play the victim
And tell me
How far it goes
