[Verse 1]
I was four years old
With a cartoon on the screen
Sweet little songs
Hiding what they mean
They call me "too much"
When I start to shake
Like the night left teeth marks
Deep in my name
[Pre-Chorus]
Don't hand me your blame
Don't dress it up nice
I learned to survive
In the split of a light
You want a clean story
A soft little frame
But I was a child
When you fed me the shame
[Chorus]
Not my fault
Not my fault
Say it again
Not my fault
I was hurt so young
I still feel it burn
Not my fault
Not my fault
Your lies can turn
[Verse 2]
Now they want calm hands
And a lowered head
Want me grateful for scraps
For the life I bled
But I know that room
I know that fear
I know what got stolen
And why I'm here
Every "move on"
Is a knife in the dark
You don't bury a scream
And call it art
[Pre-Chorus]
Don't hand me your blame
Don't dress it up nice
I learned to survive
In the split of a light
You want a clean story
A soft little frame
But I was a child
When you fed me the shame
[Chorus]
Not my fault
Not my fault
Say it again
Not my fault
I was hurt so young
I still feel it burn
Not my fault
Not my fault
Your lies can turn
[Bridge]
I was four
And the world looked away
Four years old
While the good songs played
Now I spit out the fire
That you put in my throat
I am not your wound
I am not your joke
[Final Chorus]
Not my fault
Not my fault
Say it again
Not my fault
I was hurt so young
I still feel it burn
Not my fault
Not my fault
I take back my turn
Not my fault
Not my fault
I am still here
Not my fault
