Blame it on a lack of sleep
Blame it on the things my parents' marriage
Failed to teach me
I pinned it on hopelessness
Or some type of life's unfairness
Not every angel's heaven-sent, my dear
Nor every miracle divine, not here
But you got me to love
Made me think that you had none
Just to get me addicted to your poison running through my blood, so
Cure me
Cure me
You'll cure me if you'll
Say that you love me
Won't you?
Say that you love me
Won't you?
Respond how you feel, but
Be true
I never thought I'd say it
But I'll say it to you
If you don't feel the same
Then I can't say
That I blame you
I'll take it like it never hurt
I'll play the game
Act the same
Act like I never loved her
It's the American dream
Have everything you need
Except for the things
That matter
Not every truth is something pure, my friend
And the journey to have it all never ends, so
Teach me
Teach me
I'll listen hard if you
Say that you love me
Won't you?
Say that you love me
Won't you?
Respond how you feel, but
Be true
I never thought I'd say it
But I'll say it to you
If you don't feel the same
Then I can't say
That I blame you
Lookin' right at me
No truth
Your eyes are like gemstones
Bulletproof
I don't know what I did, but
I lost you
Give it a while
I'll have someone new
And she'll
Say that she loves me
Say that she loves me
