[Intro]
Why is it that you always take it out on me?
Is it what you need to make your life complete?

[Verse 1]
He said, “Houston, we’re going down.”
As he took his last stand out of town
His faded dreams and memories
Were nothing more than lies, I digress
Have you seen my altered world of make believe?
It always just convinces me that everyone will disappear

[Chorus]
Why is it that you always take it out on me?
Is it what you need to make your life complete?
Why is it that you always take it out on me?
One day you will see that the rest is history

[Verse 2]
Open-eyes and fragile minds
Never seemed to hold me back till now
Should I stay or should I go, I’ll never seem to know
Or I could give it up now and I’ll see
I never should have left you, because of me
I’ll second guess my virtue
You were the one, I wish that I could hold you near
But I’m too late
[Pre-Chorus]
You said you needed time
Too bad my watch is broken
Our lives fell out of line
I’m breaking down

[Chorus]
Why is it that you always take it out on me?
Is it what you need to make your life complete?
Why is it that you always take it out on me?
One day you will see that the rest is history

[Bridge]
Those nights that we shared, your eyes lit up the heavens
And when I was scared, my cheeks were sore from smiling
And I was unaware, but you have helped me catch my breath
She whispers that you haven’t seen nothing yet

[Chorus]
(So tell me why)
Why is it that you always take it out on me?
Is it what you need to make your life complete?
Why is it that you always take it out on me?
One day you will see that the rest is history

[Outro]
Why is it that you always take it out on me?
Is it what you need to make your life complete?
