Lyrics

So perhaps you had found I completely forgot Just how quickly you brought out the worst in me Black and white turned plaid Every saint seemed a cad Every value I had got reversed in me Now my friends say it's strange Say they've noticed a change About what to attribute it to Is it them? No it's not Nor some government plot When I'm put on the spot, I blame you See, it didn't occur To my heart to infer That these obstacles were insurmountable Your embrace was so cold Still I bought all you sold Now I'm hellbent to hold you accountable When it pleased you to live Did you even conceice That this dire consequence would ensue? I'm a wreck, I'm a mess I'm like limp watercress I'll just wither unless I blame you It's a minor variation on a well worn theme It's an old extreme that I'm sinking to I look for explanations but I manage none It's the damage done that I'm drinking to And I smoke like a fiend I've been ? and demeaned By this finely machined amour fou You were yin to my yang You were Sturm to my Drang And they tell me that tango takes two You're the best chance that I ever blew And for that, dear, I can only blame you
