[Verse 1] It was too naive of me to Think that you'd act your age and Stick to what we agreed It seems we're still playing those games The ones that drive me insane and Keep me caught in your schemes [Pre-Chorus] Well let's finish playing, go ahead, roll the dice If you're gonna tell the story, at least tell it right [Chorus] You were the one who said you couldn't take it You were the one who said we wouldn't make it You play the victim, well you can keep dreaming I won't lie for you, die for you Makе no mistake, I may be an accomplice But you'rе the assailant [Verse 2] You called Ms. Kangeroo Court to try And sanction your thoughts To find a new enemy [Pre-Chorus] Well let's call for the jury and have them decide If your version of the story sits with them right [Chorus] You were the one who said you couldn't take it You were the one who said we wouldn't make it You play the victim, well you can keep dreaming I won't lie for you, die for you Make no mistake, I may be an accomplice But you're the assailant [Bridge] I know you like to blame it on me But I won't be the person you want me to be [Chorus] You were the one who said you couldn't take it You were the one who said we wouldn't make it You play the victim, well you can keep dreaming I won't lie for you, die for you Make no mistake, I may be an accomplice But you're the assailant [Outro] You were the one who said you couldn't take it (You couldn't take it) You were the one who said we wouldn't make it (Make it) You play the victim, well you can keep dreaming (You can keep dreaming) I won't lie for you, die for you Make no mistake, I may be an accomplice (Make no mistake) But you're the assailant
