"It's Not Your Fault" lyrics

You make yourself so small
So nobody can see you at all
You do your best to hide
That you still feel like a child

You hear the stories that are so much worse
You tell yourself that it shouldn't still hurt
It's easier to blame yourself
Than to put it on someone else

You say you should've known better
Just watched as it all went wrong
You'd carry the guilt forever
But it's not your fault
It's not your fault
It's not your fault
It's not your fault
It's not your fault

You wonder if you made it up
Maybe it was just a dream
But now you still hurt yourself
To make it feel like it matters to somebody
You didn't make a move
Didn't make a sound
But tell me how would you when your body shut down
Sometimes you think you'd rather die
Than to feel what you're feeling inside

You say you should've known better
Just watched as it all went wrong
You'd carry the guilt forever
But it's not your fault
You say it never gets better
Broken as you built your walls
You'd hate yourself forever
But it's not your fault

It's not your fault
It's not your fault
It's not your fault

You didn't know better and he was wrong
Don't carry the guilt forever
It's not your fault
