Lyrics
[Verse 1]

You couldn’t walk in my shoes; if you did well you would be as confused

Cuz lonely hearts like mine are hard to find…only if you close your eyes

So breathless here I stand suffocating on the words you choke me with

You toss me down, throw me around, and you leave me in the dark

Yeah you really play with my heart

So go on and blame all my mistakes

I'll be the scapegoat for your sins and your shame

and then one day you’ll be on your own

That’s the life for a heart like stone

[Verse 2]

Screw you, I'll sing it again, screw you for the selfish things you did

I showed you truth and you threw lies back in my face

Yeah you really wear your crown with grace

So go on and blame all my mistakes

I'll be the scapegoat for your sins and your shame

and then one day you’ll be on your own

That’s the life for a heart like stone

[Verse 3]

Well you blame me for what I did and what I did not do

Yeah you blame me; well baby I'm throwing it back to you

So go on and blame all my mistakes

I'll be the scapegoat for your sins and your shame

and then one day you’ll be on your own

That’s the life for a heart like stone
