Blame Me

I try to keep the dark away

But you still see it in my face

I step in front of every fire

You call it danger, I call it desire

If you need someone to blame

I don’t mind, I’ll take the name

I’ll be the bad guy for you

If that’s what you need me to do

Call me the storm in your sky

I’ll take the fall every time

I’ll be the bad guy for you

Even when you know it ain’t true

I’d rather you feel safe tonight

So I’ll be the villain in your eyes

I fight the things you never see

Keep all the shadows off your sleep

You think I’m trouble when I stay

But I’m the one who keeps the wolves away

If you need someone to blame

I don’t mind, I’ll take the name

I’ll be the bad guy for you

If that’s what you need me to do

Call me the storm in your sky

I’ll take the fall every time

I’ll be the bad guy for you

Even when you know it ain’t true

I’d rather you feel safe tonight

So I’ll be the villain in your eyes

If your world needs someone darker

I can hold that weight a while longer

I’ll be the bad guy for you

If that’s what you need me to do

Call me the storm in your sky

I’ll take the hit every time

I’ll be the bad guy for you

Even when you know it ain’t true

I’d rather you feel safe tonight

So I’ll be the villain in your eyes
