Am I to blame? If I won't speak her name, if I won't face her grave Maybe I'm to blame, maybe I'm to blame Since you're gone, I've never felt the same
Well maybe I'm just a bad seed Of the family I'll get my sleep without tear-stained sheets And I'll never come cryin' for sympathy
Well I need a place to run to Yeah I need a place to hide Yeah I need a place where I don't need a smile as my disguise
Am I to blame? If I won't face your grave Am I to blame? Am I to blame? If I cannot bear to face your grave And mother please shine down on me Show me that I'm not the bad seed
Maybe I'm to blame, maybe I'm to blame Since you're gone I never felt the same
Well maybe my mind's deceiving me But I think you took the easy way out You left me standing there empty handed As soon as you put that gun in your mouth So please don't keep on asking If there's something wrong 'Cause you know damn well if I was fine I would've never ever written this song
