Common Courtesy Lyrics

I carry the blame
Have myself to hate for this
So you took a bullet and aimed through my heart
'Cause you couldn't find another way
And a chasm seemed to form between us
When I talked to you the other day
You told me I'm romanticizing all these feelings
It's a dangerous game to play
It's a dangerous game that we play

You let your courtesy get in the way

Now, you want to forget it all
In your nature
It's just common courtesy
Regret my fault
Don't you be so quick to forgive
Wish that I could just forget, ooh

You're one to complain
Haven't slept for days 'cause of this
So, I saw the damage I made
Closed my eyes hoping maybe it would go away
Oh, but it never really goes away

Oh, oh, ooh
Oh, oh-oh-oh, ah-ah-ah
Ha-ah-ah

If I could open my eyes
And meet you down under these waves
Then would you spell out for me
The bigger picture
The point you're trying to make
Oh, though I've only caused you pain
You let your courtesy get in the way

Now, you want to forget it all
In your nature
It's just common courtesy
Regret my fault
Don't you be so quick to forgive
Wish that I could just forget

Days upon days lying restless in my bed (It's just common courtesy)
If I waited for some revelation to enter my head
Oh, I'd be waiting until I'm dead

Ohh, I see the damage I made
Closing my eyes won't make this go away
'Cause there's a bigger problem to face
Give me time, and I'll make it go away
