When you'd yell I would stay silent

You never noticed I was quiet 
        C                Cm                G   G 
I was taught that speaking up was talking back 
         C            Cm 
Always first to say: I'm sorry

'Cause I wanted you to like me 
         C                   Cm              G   G 
And I thought that's what it took to make it last

That I don't choose

How come I have to break to keep us working? 
     Cm                   G 
It's always up to me even though it shouldn't be 
     C                                 Cm 
I'll take the blame the way you want me to 

'Cause that's what I'd do for you

I was half of this dynamic

I was stable, you were manic 
C                   Cm                 G  G 
Without you or with you, comes with a cost 
      C           Cm 
I got used to the excuses 
    G         G 
And emotional abuses 
   C               Cm                G   G 
We kept moving the lines we'd never cross 

       C      Cm

        G      G 
That I don't choose

C                     Cm                        G 
  I always think it's over, but it never really is 
                       G                        C 
'Cause I can't get the closure when you're like this 
       Cm 
Can we switch 

C                             Cm

It's always up to me even though it shouldn't be
