Spotlight

(album: Tough Decisions - 2017)

And there's so many things
I should probably say to you
I should tell you I loved you and still do
But I make it worse for myself
Because it's easy
Oh, and there's too many things
That I never said to you
And I guess I'll never say to you
I make it worse for myself
Because it's easy

Don't you know I tried to blame you?
For all that you did when you sat down and smiled
I know I gave you pain enough for you to cry
Don't you know I tried to hurt you?
'Cause all that you did was sit on that side
While I was burning, breaking under your spotlight
Don't you know I

I don't wanna talk to you
Because I just wanna talk to you
And I know that would hurt
They say it's so easy
Oh, to say the things that you don't mean
You were right, babe
The truth hurts

And don't you know I tried to blame you?
All that you did was sit down and smile
I know I gave you pain enough for you to cry
Don't you know I tried to hurt you so bad?
All that you did was sit on that side
While I was burning, breaking under your spotlight

Running away, there was pain
In losing everything that we had made
If you had shed a tear I might've stayed
But all that you did was spit out an okay
Letting it fade is as hard as it sounds
How is it now you've come up without
Not even a bit of regret in your eyes
Oh, when I

I, oh I tried to blame you
All that you did was sit down and smile
I know I gave you pain enough for you to at least cry
Don't you know I only tried to hurt you?
'Cause all that you did was sit on the side
While I was burning, breaking under your spotlight

And all that you did was sit there and lie
When I was wondering if you would be alright
And all that you did was walk out the night
I needed you the most of all in all of my life
Don't you know I
