  • Is it because you know my name?
    Or is it because you saw my face on the cover?
    Either way, it's all the same
    It's like talking to a friend who's tryna be your lover

    Underneath it all
    I know it's not your fault
    That you don't understand
    I blame myself

    How could you know what it feels like to fight the hounds of hell?
    You think you know me so well
    How could you know what it feels like to be outside yourself?
    You think you know me so well
    I just want you to realize I blame, I blame myself
    Blame, blame, blame myself
    I blame, I blame, blame myself
    For my reputation

    I'm just a face without a choice
    I trust you'd never like to guess what I think above these shoulders
    10 years old without a voice
    I feel like nothing's really changed, now I'm just a little older

    Underneath it all
    I know it's not your fault
    That you don't understand
    I blame myself

    How could you know what it feels like to fight the hounds of hell?
    You think you know me so well
    How could you know what it feels like to be outside yourself?
    You think you know me so well
    I just want you to realize I blame, I blame myself
    Blame, blame, blame myself
    I blame, I blame, blame myself
    For my reputation

    (I blame myself)
    (I blame myself)
    (I blame myself)
    (I blame myself)

    How could you know what it feels like to fight the hounds of hell?
    You think you know me so well
    How could you know what it feels like to be outside yourself?
    You think you know me so well
    I just want you to realize I blame, I blame myself
    Blame, blame, blame myself
    I blame, I blame, blame myself
    For my reputation

    (I blame myself)
    (I blame myself)
    (I blame myself)
    (I blame myself) Writer/s: Ariel Zvi Rechtshaid, Daniel Leonardo Nigro, Jordan Christopher Benik, Justin Louis Raisen, Sky Ferreira
