how far do i have to go
to do right by you
you say you've been wronged
but all i did was tell the truth
refrain:
it's all your fault
it's all your fault, she screams
what did i do
to deserve this
you say you have trouble saying no to me
you tell me you can't say anything but please
well i don't remember being so demanding
no i don't remember asking for so much
refrain
bridge:
so now you're the victim
and i'm your killer
but i don't remember
signing up for this
i tell you you must have a persecution complex
you say i don't know what that means but it doesn't sound good
you say what are you trying to tell me what are you saying
why is the whole world against me
refrain
refrain

sarah says: although reading the title alone will probably give you a pretty good idea of what this song is about, i feel compelled to explain it anyway. which is actually the whole reason i wrote this song in the first place (to explain things). i've been in several relationships were i think i've given the guy more credit than he probably deserves as far as why things didn't work out between us. you see, i have this complex, and normal basic guy behaviour often seems like an outragous attack on my character. this song is pretty much an apology to "the ex-boyfriends" who i maybe treated a little unfairly...maybe.
