Blaming Myself Lyrics

[Chorus]
'Cause every single time we try to work it out
It just falls apart and I end up blaming myself
Blaming myself, blaming myself
'Cause every single time we try to work it out
It just falls apart and I end up blaming myself
Blaming myself, blaming myself

[Verse 1]
Never felt like I was good enough
You said there's nobody else you could love
I know that you hate me, I'm right for you, baby
Maybe I'm just crazy, just thought we could figure it out

[Verse 2]
It feels good, but I know it ain't right
A mirage, I'm just chasin' a high
You don't care, I can tell by your eyes
I'm a fool, you play me with your lies
Treat me bad, do whatever you like
You just cry and you beg for my time
I don't care 'cause I'll still come right back (I come back to you)
I come back to you
I come back to you
Yeah, I come back to you
You could hurt me again, I come back to you
And I blame myself for not loving you right
[Chorus]
'Cause every single time we try to work it out
It just falls apart and I end up blaming myself
Blaming myself, blaming myself
'Cause every single time we try to work it out
It just falls apart and I end up blaming myself
Blaming myself, blaming myself

[Outro]
And I know I'm all alone
And I blame myself, but I know I try
And it hurts to let go, but I must cut ties
(Woah)

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]

What did Weiland & MIKE DEAN say about "Blaming Myself"?
Genius Answer

In an interview with Highsnobiety, Weiland explains the lyrics and inspiration behind “Blaming Myself”:

I wrote this song expressing myself in an extremely vulnerable state – in this relationship, I loved them so much that I would let them treat me however they wanted, and I’d always turn a blind eye and just blame any negativity on myself. I wanted to be there for them, no matter what they put me through, mentally and physically. All I wanted to do was fix it.
