Can you tell me when having conviction
Became cliche and so passe
And pointing fingers is never my intention
I know it must come off that way
I'm just confused at what the fuck happened to you
And why you just gave up
And why I'm injured by everything you do
And why it hurts so much
I'm totally overwhelmed with disbelief
Let's talk about how you always manage
To make me feel less secure
And how I never really take advantage
Of time alone to sort this out
And how these blues are cunning and contagious
They spread me out like a disease
And how you keep me scribbling on pages
Writing you between my lines
I'm totally overwhelmed with disbelief\
Every time I think of this
It makes me sick to think I missed
My chance to save you from yourself
This world and everybody else
It's hard to have to realize how
The shot you had is fucked up now
And it's my fault for giving up
And losing hope, abusing love
I know that I abandoned you
You're every bit of sleep I lose
I'm human but it's no excuse
For all the things I didn't do
