Dan Smith described the narrative of “Blame” as “a super simple snapshot of two gang members”. This is reflected in the song’s violent imagery and background instrumentation that Dan describes as having a “mean, dramatic lean”.
“Blame” was incorporated into Bastille’s live set in 2013, prior to Wil...
Blame Lyrics
[Verse 1]
You go sleep with the fishes
There's no room for you here
There's no room for you here
Wrap your teeth around the pavement
'Cause your body's a message
Send my regards to hell
[Chorus 1]
Fall upon your knees, sing:
"This is my body and soul here"
Crawl and beg and plead, sing:
"You've got the power and control"
Don't pin it all on me
Don't pin it all on me!
[Verse 2]
You've been granted three wishes
Say goodbye to your mother, your father, your son
I can hear your pulse racing from here
Sitting next to this gun beats your heart in your mouth
[Chorus 1]
Fall upon your knees, sing:
"This is my body and soul here"
Crawl and beg and plead, sing:
"You've got the power to control"
Don't pin it all on me
Don't pin it all on me!
[Bridge]
Oh, blame, blame, blame (I got you, I got you)
Oh, blame, blame, blame (I got you, I got you)
Oh, blame, blame, blame (I got you, I got you)
Oh, blame, blame, blame (I got you, I got you)
[Chorus 2]
Fall upon your knees, sing:
"This is my body and soul here"
Crawl and beg and plead, sing:
"You've got the power to control here
This is my body and this is my soul!”
Fall upon your knees, sing:
“This is my body and soul
Don't pin it all on me
Don't pin it all on me!"
[Outro]
Don't pin it all on me
Don't pin it all on me

In an interview with Radio.com, Dan Smith described the imagery of the song:
“Blame” is like a super simple snapshot of two gang members, one of whom is pissing the other one off, and it’s like that moment before pulling the trigger, and it’s the snapshot of that, and it was using imagery from like...
