it was me

You're either growing or you're dying

Could've saved ourselves a couple years of fighting

I guess it's easy now it's over

To play it back with all this clarity and closure

You painted my reality in fire red

And called it green

And I, I

And I still wanna say the pain

Is all your fault and you're to blame

But ah, ah

But it was me

Who didn't leave

Who never told you to fuck off

Who couldn't be

Strong enough for what I want

You made me doubt myself

Made love feel more like hell

But it was me

Fuck you

But it was me

Guess you caught me, I was lying

To myself when I said "we should keep on trying"

Now I know how much I needed

For you to be okay

So I could be okay

You painted my reality in fire red

And called it green

And I, I

And I still wanna say the pain

Is all your fault and you're to blame

But ah, ah

But it was me

Who didn't leave

Who never told you to fuck off

Who couldn't be

Strong enough for what I want

You made me doubt myself

Made love feel more like hell

But it was me

Fuck you

But it was me
