I hope I remember your words
When time has passed
I hope they don't go away
Even if you did
I hope I can make them stay
Even if you didn't

I blame my parents for being afraid
for teaching me every sharp edge of the world
and learning I might never be safe

I blame my parents for being lonely
for missing people I never had
and I know will never hold me

I blame my parents for the sleepless nights
for wondering if I will ever get it right
or one day wish I could go back in time

I blame my parents
because they are my parents
and I can blame them
for who I turned out to be

But when they are gone
and all I have are memories
I’ll just blame them
for leaving me.

How many hands will I hold?
How many will I have to let go?

The day you left
You took something from me
Softly, quietly,
Pretending you weren't a thief

You ran out
In the middle of the night
And I know I deserved
A better goodbye

You were a liar
But so was I
When I said “I love you”
Thank god I lied

You couldn’t steal my heart
‘Cause you didn’t know
Where it was

So instead you stole my pride
So I could’t be the first
To leave you behind

I still think about people
Who burried me a long time ago

Isn’t it funny?
How he can play the part
Seconds before
He tears you apart?

I hope when I leave
Your house stinks of memories.
