Blame It On You

from A Lesson in Keeping Quiet by Candace Griffin

lyrics

Couldn't sleep, so I slept in today. Didn't wanna work, so I called in today.
They'll probably fire me, but I don't really care cause shit always happens and it's not fair.
Car got a flat tire again today. But I've got nowhere to be anyway. So maybe I'll stay home and try to figure out what this life really is, what it's all about.
But tomorrow will be the same like the day before, nothing good seems to happen to me anymore.

I'm just going to blame it on you. It's all your fault.
I'm going to blame it on you. It's you by default.
If tomorrow I wake up and the sun is shining through, then maybe it's a sign that I don't need you.

Don't know why I ever gave you my heart. Cause you left me alone from the start. Now every other man is a big let down, and I think it's all because you were never around.

I'm just going to blame it on you. It's all your fault.
I'm going to blame it on you. It's you by default.
If tomorrow I wake up and the sun is shining through, then maybe it's a sign that I don't need you.

And why did it have to be this way? Was I not enough reason to stay?
I could have been your girl but all I see is a silly little boy that doesn't agree.

I'm just going to blame it on you. It's not my fault.
I'm going to blame it on you. And all bets are off.
If tomorrow you come home and I'm still here, then maybe it was really meant to be, my dear.
But the sun is coming up, and it's shining through, so maybe it's a sign that I don't need you.
