When you'd yell, I would stay silent You never noticed I was quiet
I was tired that speaking up was talking back Always first to say I'm sorry
Cause I wanted you to like me And I thought that's what it took to make
it last It's a lose -lose that I don't choose
But you don't always choose the ones you love
I shouldn't have to be the bigger person How come I have to break to keep us working?
It's always up to me, even though it shouldn't be
I'll take the blame the way you want me to Cause that's what I'd do for you
Yeah, that's what I'd do for you
I was half of this dynamic I was stable, you were manic
Without you or with you comes with a cost I got used to the excuses and emotional abuses
We kept moving the lines we'd never cross It's a lose -lose that I don't choose
But you don't always choose the ones you love
I shouldn't have to be the bigger person How come I have to break to keep us working?
It's always up to me, even though it shouldn't be
I'll take the blame the way you want me to Cause that's what I'd do for you
I always think it's over, but it never really is
Cause I can't get the closure when you're like this
Can we switch?
Maybe next time you'll be the bigger person Cause I'm getting tired of bearing all your burden
It should be up to you, but you won't admit the truth
I shouldn't have to be the bigger person How come I have to break to keep us working?
It's always up to me, even though it shouldn't be
I'll take the blame the way you want me to Cause that's what I'd do for you
