Lyrics

Now you just got home and you’re all alone
Now isn’t that a crying shame!
There’s no one here and it’s crystal clear
You’ve only got yourself to blame

You could kick up a fuss, damn and cuss
Just walk it off in the rain
But it’s far too late, she bolted the gate
You’ve only got yourself to blame

I could have told you it would end this way
I could have told you why

Your dreams are dark and you wake with a start
Calling out another’s name
You hold out your hand, but the cup is full of sand
And you’ve only got yourself to blame

You could get your stuff, pack up, move off
And never pass this way again
But there’s no escape the self-loathing that awaits
When you’ve only got yourself to blame

I could have told you it would end this way
I could have told you why
You persist in these dark, disturbing memories
When you’ve only got yourself to blame

I could have told you it would end like this
I could have told you why
There’s no one here, it’s crystal clear
That you’ve only got yourself to blame
