Take Responsibility
I never told you what to do
I've never judged a thing about you
I know who it is I fell in love with
Flaws and all, you're the one I accepted
Why, then, did you feel the need to to lie?
I have three rules, don't hit, don't steal, don't lie to me
You broke the lying and stealing outright
I gave you a second chance
I tried so hard to understand
You say it's because you're addicted to drugs
I already knew that about you
I went to family rehab with you and heard the lies you
told
I'm supposed to act like it's nothing?
You told them the reason you're an addict, everyone has
one,
Is because you were molested as a child once
If that's a reason, I'd be lost in that world, gone
You took my past, betrayed me, condensed it, made it yours
Stole all my trust
You're addicted because you did drugs to run
You ran and ran til your body and mind said
I need this more than anything else.
The past can't cause addiction.
People with no trauma become addicts too
I have a past from hell and I made it through
You make the best of what you go through
And you become the best with what you've got
Once I thought you were my beloved. Turns out you were just another fool
