i'll take the blame - VÉRITÉ

There’s not a pill to take

That could erase you, babe

There’s no escaping

The heat in July

You rather break your neck

Than try to fix your head

There’s not a consequence

That you would find

'Cause I’ll take the blame for you

Whatever that means

To take it away for you

Whatever it takes

To bring you back to where you were

Before the break

I’ll take the blame

And you’ll walk away

You’ve got your new, new fix

While I talk to my crucifix

The closest to prayer I’ll get

To throw you a line

Saying you’re not yourself

And I’m praying you’re someone else

So it’s not you I lose

This time

'Cause I’ll take the blame for you

Whatever that means

To take it away for you

Whatever it takes

To bring you back to where you were

Before the break

I’ll take the blame

And you’ll walk away

You’ll walk away

And I’ll take the blame

With no hesitations

Taking it on

And drinking you down

And loving you more

Even though it’s all changed

Though I’m not yours anymore

I’ll still take the blame for you

Whatever that means

To take it away for you

Whatever it takes

To bring you back to where you were

Before the break

And I’ll take the blame

And you’ll walk away
