lyrics

you've cast me as the villain
which is fine
you need someone to take the fall for your mistakes
but you've taken his side
which is fine
but I'm the one that was ripped to pieces

I read a letter to myself one year ago
before he shattered the semblance I was of whole

you don't agree with my decisions
honey, that's why they're mine
be careful with your incisions
because the line blurs suddenly between you and I

i've spent my whole life in sorry
which is fine
but this time I won't take the fall for your flaws
I said I was wrong when I wasn't
which is fine
but I won't eat shit for you
not this time

you're blind in one eye
you see in black and white
i handed him my heart on a platter
dressed, carved and ready for him to devour
i think he'd rather watch it rot
and claim that holes in chests are works of art
I loved him, and he asked me to wait.

I realized you're just as alone as I.
