This is the blame game
This is self-sabotage day
Time to be livid at every glance I get of myself
I'm ashamed
When the going gets tough
You've gotta call your own bluff
There's a time and a place to dig your own grave
So it's now or it's late
I can't restore my faith
There's a Goddess in my head but I can't hear what she says
Is there a future for me?
Or should I quit while I'm ahead?
All I hear is your name
And all I know is my rage
So shut your mouth they said
Girls like you don't get far around here
Looking for the answers
Trying to fix it all
I'll be your saviour
I'm ashamed
When you're throwing your chairs
And you're calling her name
I'll never be hated like her
Spent my life trying to please ya
Oh, I'm number one
But your game never ends
I should have been a son
Is there a future for me?
