Lyrics

Walked home in the cold from your apartment
Nose red, running in the midnight wind
Cursed myself for not wearing a jacket
Cursed you for never even offering
You answered the door, hair still dripping
Found the straps of my tank top slipping
Cursed myself after for feeling alone
Cursed you for not even walking me home
Could I really have been just anyone?
Told myself it was only a little fun
And I know what I got myself into
But I never intended to want more of you
Yeah it's my fault, isn't it?
Yeah it's my fault, isn't it
You're not the story I made up in my mind
Guess that's my fault, do this every time
Never pretended to be different
You never tried to plead innocent
You came and knew what you wanted
Let down my walls, but you stayed guarded
You stayed guarded
You stayed guarded
You stayed guarded
Sitting on the floor of my shower
Wash away thoughts of you for an hour
Every drop is your lips on my skin
Cursing myself for ever letting you in
Hate that I'm still living, in the history of a memory
Know I agreed to be okay with this
Tell myself you're not something to miss
But it's an unspoken contract
Signed by your apparent lack of respect
I held your attention for a moment
Kept me in your view, but never quite in focus
Yeah it's my fault, isn't it?
Yeah it's my fault, isn't it
You're not the story I made up in my mind
Guess that's my fault, do this every time
Never pretended to be different
You never tried to plead innocent
You came and knew what you wanted
Let down my walls, but you stayed guarded
You stayed guarded
You stayed guarded
You stayed guarded
I've never been a"chill" girl, the casual kind
You will live on in the back of my mind
You carried on without a care
But I stayed there
I stayed there
I stayed there
While you stayed guarded
Yeah, you stayed guarded
Yeah, you stayed guarded
