Can't Blame Me - Young Roddy, Roddy & Jamaal

I was so high last night, heard you talking but couldn't reply Something caught my eye Pulled me closer to the other side Is this what you wanted to crash and to burn and to learn it the hard way? Congrats, yeah you earned it Wish I could get it right, nothing works no matter what I try Sometimes the last thing I need is some sunlight But recently im seeing this side of 5 a.m. Way too many nights You can't blame me I'm not fine pretending that everything's alright 'Cause this time just might be the last time That I'll ever hear you say good night You can't blame me Now I'm nothing but a voice inside your head Replaying all the memories we never had You can't take back all the words you never said Not everything made of gold is meant to last Is this what you wanted to crash and burn and to learn it the hard way? Congrats, yeah you earned it Now I'm nothing but a ghost inside this bed An empty room that's filled with nothing but regret Sometimes the last thing I need is some sunlight But recently im seeing this side of 5 a.m. Way too many nights You can't blame me I'm not fine pretending that everything's alright 'Cause this time just might be the last time That I'll ever hear you say good night You can't blame me I'm not fine pretending it's alright, it's never been alright I'm not fine pretending it's alright, it's never been alright If I ever said I was fine, I was lying to keep you from finding, the pills your prescribing You're the one who always did the deciding so why are you crying when I'm the one dying? Sometimes the last thing I need is some sunlight But recently im seeing this side of 5 a.m. Way too many nights You can't blame me I'm not fine pretending that everything's alright 'Cause this time just might be the last time That I'll ever hear you say good night You can't blame me I'm not fine pretending it's alright, it's never been alright I'm not fine pretending it's alright, it's never been alright

Can't blame you when you're going This is something you've got to do You've got to go ho ho Trying so hard not to cry Since they say a man ain't supposed to cry But these tears keep running from my eyes I remember the day I came to the city. My children were crying My wife was scared she's gonna lose me To the girls in the city To make her feel alright I said it's impossible To make her feel alright I said it's impossible but was wrong Can't blame you when you're going This is something you've got to do You've got to go ho ho Can't blame you when you're going This is something you've got to do You've got to go ho ho You've been keeping me here all these years As your private lover Letters came from home But I never answered Till tonight when I got this letter From my little daughter saying "Missing you Daddy" It's time to go Can't blame you when you're going This is something you've got to do You've got to go ho ho Can't blame you when you're going This is something you've got to do You've got to go ho ho Letters came from home But I never answered Till today when I got this letter From my little daughter saying "Missing you Daddy" See me now, see me no more I heard that whistle blow I knew it's time to go Sitting here in this train Going so fast past the trees I'm thinking of words to apologize Cause sorry ain't enough Can't blame you when you're going This is something you've got to do You've to go ho ho

Something got me paranormal Losing my steps Walking down this endless tunnel I'm just trying to forget Talk about another shot of redemption I let you down No making no exceptions Backhanded back around All I taste is fear On the tip of my tongue Lost inside here I'm running nowhere Hiding from it Patience over Breaking out Now I can see why you blame me Now I can feel what you feel Now I know what you're faced with And now I know this ain't real Now I can see why you blame me, blame me, blame me Now I can see why you blame me, blame me, blame me Blurry kind of focus Bad influence Now my mind has started floating away I'm not making sense My pistol's fully loaded What a turn of events Now I'm acting like my head's exploded, fizzy soda Falling off the fence All I taste is fear On the tip of my tongue (On the tip of my tongue) Lost inside here I'm running nowhere Hiding from it Patience over Breaking out Now I can see why you blame me Now I can feel what you feel Now I know what you're faced with And now I know this ain't real Now I can see why you blame me, blame me, blame me Now I can see why you blame me, blame me, blame me

Oh see the hosts of fleet foot men Who speed with faces wan From Farmstead and from Fisher's cot Along the banks of Bann They come with vengeance in their eyes Too late, too late are they For young Roddy McCorley goes to die On the Bridge of Toome today Up the narrow streets he stepped Smiling proud and young About the hemp rope on his neck The golden ringlets clung There is never a tear in his blue eyes For glad and bright are they As young Roddy McCorely goes to die On the bridge of Toome today When he last stepped up that street His shining pike in hand Behind him marched in grim array A stalwart earnest band "For Antrim Town! For Antrim Town! He lead them to the fray And young Roddy McCorely goes to die On the Bridge of Toome today There is never a one of all your dead More bravely fell in fray Than he who marches to his fate On the bridge of Toome today True to the last, true to the last He treads the upward way And young Roddy McCorely goes to die On the Bridge of Toome today
