Out Of Excuses

(album: Subject To Change - 2021)

How did you do it?
How did you run away, so afraid, throw out apologies
To everyone but me
You made me feel dumb
For letting you know me, then rob me, and leaving me with the gun
Like I was the only one

And I've been taking what went wrong and owning all the truth
But I was wrong for thinking you would too

What'd I expect?
That you'd feel guilty for the way that you left
That it would break your heart to know that your friend
Isn't your friend anymore
But I'm done feeling stupid
I'm out of excuses for you

Can you teach me
How to smooth over the edges and make it all clean and nice
Compartmentalize

I'm not trying to say that
I'm just the victim and didn't get caught in the part I played
It's a heavy weight

But I've been taking what went wrong and owning all the truth
And I was wrong for thinking you would too

A broken heart makes you do crazy shit
And I've done my fair share of it
It's been brutal but I've grown a bit
Wouldn't give up anything I've learned
That doesn't mean it didn't hurt
But it's sweeter cause I know I've earned it
Yeah I've earned it

What'd I expect?
That you'd feel guilty for the way that you left
That it would break your heart to know that your friend
Isn't your friend anymore
But I'm done feeling stupid
I'm out of excuses
Yeah, I know what the truth is
And I'm out of excuses for you
