FAWM: "One To Blame"

One To Blame

Liner Notes

I JUST REMEMBERED IT WAS FAWM TODAY. since last year I've discovered how to use Bandlab so I don't have to do all of my songs in one take. Fantastic. This is really sloppily put together, I would love if someone could take another look at the instrumentals, but here's what I've got lol. Thanks everyone o7
P.S. My theme this year is going to be... The Trojan War? Maybe? This song was inspired by Helenus getting tortured for information by Odysseus :D

Lyrics

You force
My hand
These secrets I must tell
You work them out of me
Like a demon sent from hell

This isn’t a betrayal
Or saving my own skin
Please know, and soon you’ll see,
You are dead to me

I don’t wanna be right
I don’t wanna be okay
Tell me they will Find
Somebody else to blame

Someone else to blame

(You, you)

No-bod
Y- else
Would make me feel this way
Like I’m a prisoner
Like I’ve got to escape

(You, you)

Tri-umph-
-phant-ly
You laud the whispers spread
You won with games and tricks
Around my uncrowned head

My keepsakes, your weapons
My gifts, your sharp edge
(You, you)
I should have lied before
My truth became yours

This isn’t a betrayal
Or saving my own skin
Please know, and soon you’ll see,
You are dead to me

I don’t wanna be right
I don’t wanna be okay
Tell me they will Find
Somebody else to blame

Someone else to blame

(You, you)

You
You
You are the one to blame

Hi! Found you bc you left a lovely comment on my song! Thanks for that! This song is great! I think it's a really interesting concept thinking about not wanting to be right or ok. I love the echo of "you" as well! Cheers!
