Blame It On Me

I've accepted and told myself that everything is my fault, my hearts been nothing 
but a tightly closed vault.

Trying too hard to be perfect, a big mistake, thinking I have control of something 
such as fate.

My mind is always racing wanting to feel at peace, I wish this distance between 
us would finally just cease.

Realizing how you've been feeling all this time, taking my punishment for such a 
crime.

Everything that I can do for us I'm giving it a try, wanting it to become habit so we 
don't have to cry.

Blame everything on me, I can't debate,
please don't fill your heart with hate.

Emotionally, verbally, mentally and physically I'll give you my all.
to pick myself up from such a terrible fall.

Will I ever be able to hold you again?

Can we get past this rut we're in?

I don't have all the answers, I don't want to live in vain, But unconditionally loving 
you I'll have the world to gain.
