Blame (Afterthoughts Version) Lyrics by The XCERTS

Afterthoughts On Letting Go

2024

[Verse 1]
Sitting on a park bench waiting for the sun to rise
Another night spent trying to find the kiss of life
And I think of a girl I once knew who slept in an attic room
Near the bar where we'd dance
[Pre-Chorus]
Until she said no more, no more
I've only got myself to blame
[Chorus]
Only got myself to blame
Oh, it's such a crying shame
You look pretty so pretty baby when you cry
I'm better looking, so better looking when I lie
Only got myself to blame
To blame
[Verse 2]
Sipping on a short drink trying to find an easy high
Another night spent trying to catch a stranger's eye
But all I do is swipe through photos of you on this telephone
Romance is dead and it glows
[Pre-Chorus]
I can take no more, no more
And I've only got myself to blame
[Chorus]
Only got myself to blame
Oh, it's such a crying shame
You look pretty so pretty baby when you cry
I'm better looking, so better looking when I lie
Only got myself to blame
To blame
[Bridge]
Whisper sweet nothings into my ear
Call me your boy one last time, be sincere
I know it’s 2 AM and I can barely hold my phone
Yes, I'm drunk
Don’t hang up
I've only got myself—, to blame
[Chorus]
Only got myself to blame
Oh it's such a crying shame
You look pretty, so pretty baby when you cry
I'm better looking, so better looking when I lie
Only got myself to blame
[Outro]
Only got myself to blame
Only got myself
To blame
