I'll Take The Blame

giving hope
and new joys
bend and lean
on me when
you feel
that strange stream
fill my bath
with cold night air through my lungs
limping on two legs again
dont you think that i've been given up?
dont you think that i've been given up?
change, i take the blame
i take the blame, i move away
space in my life
give me yours
room to grow
pull my ears
back with words
heartbeats hurt
you have my
chest full of cold night air in my lungs
limping on two legs again
dont you think that i've been given up?
dont you think that i've been given up?
change, i take the blame
i take the blame, i move, change
i take the blame
i take the blame, i move
