Idlewild Blame It On The Obvious Ways Lyrics

Blame It On The Obvious Ways Lyrics



All the mistakes I made I made because

I didn't know myself very well

And by this stage I feel like

I really shouldn't know myself

I'm forced into a sponsored silence

Where I'm only paid

If I don't say

What I want to say



Open up your eyes and see

I can't throw it all away

Open up your eyes and see

I can't give it all away

I couldn't even care what you say

Change

You changed everything

And blame it on your obvious ways



I gamble my praises

And threw the jukebox from my favorite phrases

As we cling to the nightclub walls

We whisper the words, we whisper them wrong



So we screamed out the wrong words

Into our own song

And with a kiss that tasted like drugs

Which taste like we'll never ever make it home



Open up your eyes and see

I can't throw it all away

Open up your eyes and see

I can't give it all away

I couldn't even care what you say

Change

You changed everything

And blame it on your obvious ways



Throw me around

First you've got to count me down

Don't you think you should count me down

Before you throw me around



You throw me into another move I can't remake

It changes everything

Open up your arms and say

Give it all away

I couldn't even care what you say

Change

You changed everything

And blame it on your obvious ways
