[Verse 1]
Sitting on a park bench waiting for the sun to rise (Rise)
Another night spent trying to find the kiss of life
And I think of a girl I once knew who slept in an attic room
Near the bar where we'd dance
[Pre-Chorus]
Until she said no more no more
I've only got myself to blame
[Chorus]
Only got myself to blame
Oh it's such a crying shame
You look pretty so pretty baby when you cry
I'm better looking so better looking when I lie
Only got myself to blame
To blame
[Verse 2]
Sipping on a short drink trying to find an easy high
Another night spent trying to catch a stranger's еye
But all I do is swipe through photos of you on this telеphone
Romance is dead and it glows
[Pre-Chorus]
I can take no more no more
And I've only got myself to blame
[Chorus]
Only got myself to blame
Oh it's such a crying shame
You look pretty so pretty baby when you cry
I'm better looking so better looking when I lie
Only got myself to blame
To blame
[Bridge]
Whisper sweet nothings into my ear (Into my ear)
Call me your boy one last time, be sincere (Be sincere)
I know it’s 2 AM and I can barely hold my phone
Yes I'm drunk (Yes I'm drunk)
Don’t hang up (Don’t hang up)
I've only got myself—, to blame
[Chorus]
Only got myself to blame
Oh it's such a crying shame
You look pretty so pretty baby when you cry
I'm better looking so better looking when I lie
Only got myself to blame
To blame
[Outro]
Yeah, only got myself to blame
Oh, only got myself, only got myself
Only got myself to blame
Blame was written by Jordan Smith & Julien Flew & Murray Macleod & Tom Heron.
Blame was produced by Steven Ansell.
The XCERTS released Blame on Wed Jun 14 2023.
“Blame” is the most quintessential XCERTS song on the new record. It was important for us to look back but push the boundaries of what, in essence, is quite a simple pop song. The majority of the new record was written in the studio, but we crafted this one in the rehearsal room and I feel like you...
