- It's Not Me It's You LyricsLet's get the story straight
You were a poison
You flooded through my veins
You left me broken
You tried to make me think
That the blame was all on me
With the pain you put me through
And now I know that
It's not me, it's you, it's not me, it's you
Always has been you
All the lies and stupid things
You say and do, it's you
It's not me, it's you
All the lies and pain you put me through
I know that it's not me, it's you, you, you
It's not me, it's you, you
So here we go again
The same fight we're always in
I don't care so why pretend?
Wake me when your lecture ends
You tried to make me small
Make me fall and it's all your fault
With the pain you put me through
And now I know that
It's not me, it's you, it's not me, it's you
Always has been you
All the lies and stupid things
You say and do, it's you
It's not me, it's you
All the lies and pain you put me through
I know that it's not me, it's you
Let's get the story straight
You were a poison flooding through my veins
You're driving me insane
And now you're gone away
I'm no longer choking
From the pain you put me through
And now I know that
It's not me, it's you, you, it's not me, it's you
Always has been you
All the lies and stupid things
You say and do, it's you
It's not me, it's you
All the lies and pain you put me through
I know that it's not me, it's you, you, you
(It's not me, it's you)
It's not me, it's you, you
(It's not me, it's you)
It's not me, it's you, you
(It's not me, it's you)
It's not me, it's you, you
(It's not me, it's you)
It's not me, it's you
You were a poison
You flooded through my veins
You left me broken
You tried to make me think
That the blame was all on me
With the pain you put me through
And now I know that
It's not me, it's you, it's not me, it's you
Always has been you
All the lies and stupid things
You say and do, it's you
It's not me, it's you
All the lies and pain you put me through
I know that it's not me, it's you, you, you
It's not me, it's you, you
So here we go again
The same fight we're always in
I don't care so why pretend?
Wake me when your lecture ends
You tried to make me small
Make me fall and it's all your fault
With the pain you put me through
And now I know that
It's not me, it's you, it's not me, it's you
Always has been you
All the lies and stupid things
It's not me, it's you
All the lies and pain you put me through
I know that it's not me, it's you
Let's get the story straight

You're driving me insane
And now you're gone away
I'm no longer choking

And now I know that
It's not me, it's you, you, it's not me, it's you

I could do nothing right in my ex's eyes, even if I did something exactly like he wanted. He would say he told me something different. Now I live 100 miles away & lost 40lbs!! I'm happy & single!!

How would one know for sure if something existed? I don't think that anyone know anything. How do you put your faith in something that could backstab you in the end? why take the risk?

Victoria, I feel your pain. I did the same not long ago. But eventually it just got to be too much. The love faded away. I took all that I could handle. Finally, I was strong enough to end it.
