Against the Fold - Can't Blame You Lyrics

I knew you couldn't stay
There's too much water
Underneath that bridge and gone away
Ah, the stories I could tell
Just fall on deaf ears
No one wants these goods I've got to sell
So I pick up where I left off
And I'll make up another myth to ease my mind

We started with such promise
You thought you'd found the one for life
But then the cracks they surfaced
And through them shone the darkest light
Between the life you have and the one you dream

You'll run away
Can't say I'd blame you
There's too much drama here for anyone to bear
It ends the same
No god I pray to
Can sand the edges of this man I claim to be

A cruel and selfish monster
The one I try to keep in chains
Now you've seen his face
Destroying all that I've arranged
Now you understand I'm a broken man

You'll run away
Can't say I'd blame you
There's too much damage here for anyone to bear
It ends the same
No god I pray to
Can heal these wounds that cover every inch of me

All the striving for growth and chance
With a breath it's all washed away

Just run away
Can't say I'd blame you
There's too much chaos here for anyone to bear
It ends the same
No god I pray to
Can stop me disappointing everyone I see
