Within Me - NiExshadow
I've been tracing every moment
Trying to understand the fault
Looking back at all the choices
Where I never gave my all
You were reaching out to save me
But I kept pushing you away
And now I'm standing in the ruins
Of the love I couldn't say
I blame the stone between us
I blame the distance and the pain
But now I finally see it
I was the one who wouldn't change
Cuz the fault lies within me
I'm the reason that we broke
I held your heart too loosely
Spoke in silence, drowned in hope
You were trying to love someone
Who didn't know what love could be
And all the hurt we lived through
The fault lies within me
I remember how you waited
How you tried to understand
But I was scared of losing someone
I never learned to hold by hand
I built walls around my heartbeat
Hid the truth behind my pride
And when you needed me the most
I was the first to run and hide
If I could turn back time now
I'd rewrite every word I said
But the past won't give me mercy
And your absence fills my head
Cuz the fault lies within me
I'm the reason that we broke
I held your heart too loosely
Spoke in silence, drowned in hope
You were trying to love someone
Who didn't know what love could be
And all the hurt we lived through
The fault lies within me
Baby, someday you'll forgive me
Though I don't deserve your grace
Maybe someday I'll learn to heal
From the damage I can't erase
If love is meant for second chances
I pray you find someone true
Someone who won't break your heart
The way I did to you
Cuz the fault lies within me
In the words I didn't say
In the love I couldn't offer
In the ways I pushed you away
You were everything I needed
But I was blind and couldn't see
And now I'm left here alone
The fault
The fault lies within me
