You make yourself so small So nobody can see you at all You do your best to hide That you still feel like a child You hear the stories that are so much worse You tell yourself that it shouldn't still hurt It's easier to blame yourself Than to put it on someone else You say you should've known better Just watched as it all went wrong You'd carry the guilt forever But it's not your fault It's not your fault It's not your fault It's not your fault It's not your fault You wonder if you made it up Maybe it was just a dream But now you still hurt yourself To make it feel like it matters to somebody You didn't make a move Didn't make a sound But tell me how would you when your body shut down Sometimes you think you'd rather die Than to feel what you're feeling inside You say you should've known better Just watched as it all went wrong You'd carry the guilt forever But it's not your fault You say it never gets better Broken as you built your walls You'd hate yourself forever But it's not your fault It's not your fault It's not your fault It's not your fault You didn't know better and he was wrong Don't carry the guilt forever It's not your fault
