It's Not My Fault


It wasn't my fault.

I only messed up because...

Because I didn't know better.

Because I didn't have enough help.

Because I couldn't possibly have been to blame when I had tried my best.

Because...

Because...

It was my fault.

It was my fault that I blamed others when the only one to blame was myself.

It was my fault that I never took responsibility for my actions.

That...

That was my fault.
