Fault Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Is it wrong to hold you now?
I swear I fell in love with you
But couldn’t be enough for you
Was it right to give you up?
Because if I were to hurt you
I know that I’d be hurting two

[Pre-Chorus 1]
But I still feel your ghost everywhere I go
Like our parking lot after dark
And it all reminds me;
You are the lightest thing to ever come into my arms

[Chorus]
I feel it inside of my body
Should I just tell you I’m sorry?
I know we never had planned to fall
I know you know that it’s all my fault
Should I never held your body?
Should I be thankful you let me?
I know you know that it’s all my fault
I know you know that it’s all my fault

[Verse 2]
Tell me how you look your best
From the moment I wakе up to you
And you knew this would happen too
Just blame it on my agе again
But blame it on the weather too
I’m deep into the rain of you

[Pre-Chorus 2]
But I still feel your ghost everywhere I go
Like our parking lot after dark
And I refuse to let this clutter your shelves
But I can’t deny what we are

[Chorus]
I feel it inside of my body
Should I just tell you I’m sorry?
I know we never had planned to fall
I know you know that it’s all my fault
Should I never held your body?
Should I thank you that you’d let me?
I know you know that it’s all my fault
I know you know that it’s all my fault

[Bridge]
Teenage fever in our twenties ain’t crazy
I want to be what you need but it ain’t me
Teenage fever in our twenties ain’t crazy
I want to be what you need but I can’t be

[Chorus]
I feel it inside of my body
Should I just tell you I’m sorry?
I know we never had planned to fall
I know you know that it’s all my fault
Should I never held your body?
Should I thank you that you’d let me?
I know you know that it’s all my fault
I know you know that it’s all my fault

[Post-Chorus]
(I want to be what you need but I can’t be)
I know you know that it’s all my fault

About

This song bio is unreviewed

“Fault” is self-induced heartbreak. The song is told from an unorthodox perspective— the perspective of who is essentially the heartbreaker, although the pain is felt all the same. Sometimes relationships can present such a potent connection, but technical implications make it impractical or difficult to sustain. This song is about being honest with yourself and that other person and knowing that ending things is the most sensible one. Whether it be a disparity in age, life stage, distance, or other hindrances, the listener can relate to the feeling of having a solid connection with another that is somehow doomed from the start.
