More Mark Heard: It's Not Your Fault
I get lonely sometimes
It's not your fault
I'm a woman who follows her own tracks until she's lost
I'll keep on going round and round until I'm found
I get wounded sometimes
It's not your fault
I keep on shooting arrows up until they fall
They stall and turn, a narrow miss until I learn
It's not you, I'll be okay, I'm just a jerk is all
It's alright, it's just my foolishness
It's not your fault
I get helpless sometimes
It's not your fault
I just tend to tug on heartstrings til they break
A thug who wins a kiss and misses finer things
I get angry sometimes
It's not your fault
I let the molehill simmer like Vesuvius
And hole up in Pompeii until all hell breaks loose
It's not you, I'll be okay, I'm just a jerk is all
It's alright, it's just my foolishness
It's not your fault
