Guilt Trip Goodbye

[Intro]
Oh, I see those eyes, they hold the weight of tears
Whisperin’ words I hate to hear

[Verse 1]
You show up with that sad little stare
Like I’m the one who just don’t care
But I know the game you’re playing real well
Trying to write a story I’ll regret to tell

[Pre-Chorus]
Every little move, every silent plea
Guilt trips thrown like stones at me
But I’ve learned to stand up tall and free
Won’t drown in your melancholy

[Chorus]
Guilt trip, honey, I ain’t buyin’ what you’re sellin’
Your tears are river deep, but I ain’t sinkin'
Guilt trip, baby, I won’t be a fool anymore
This love’s a battlefield, but I’m walkin’ out that door

[Verse 2]
You wear that sorrow like a favorite coat
Blame me for the tears you never wrote
But I ain’t the villain in your endless pain
Just a cowboy tryin’ to ride again

[Pre-Chorus]
Tears and shadows, they won’t win this fight
Won’t let your guilt turn day into night
I’ll hold my ground, I’ll make things right
But not in your guilt’s cruel light

[Chorus]
Guilt trip, honey, I ain’t buyin’ what you’re sellin’
Your tears are river deep, but I ain’t sinkin'
Guilt trip, baby, I won’t be a fool anymore
This love’s a battlefield, but I’m walkin’ out that door

[Bridge]
You can cry, you can lie, you can try to make me feel small
But I’ve got my pride, I won’t hide from it at all
Gather up your tears, it’s the last time I’ll fall
Guilt trip’s failed, I’ve answered the call

[Outro]
So goodbye, don’t look back, I’m movin’ on with no regret
Your guilt trips’ over, babe, you ain’t gonna get
What you want from me with that heavy-hearted fret
This cowboy’s free, and I ain’t done yet
