Short in the Sleeve - No One To Blame But Yourself

You call her up, but you don't leave a message
You know she's through listening anyway
The house is cold, the shadows are pressing
Every night bleeds into the day

You were young, broken and lonely
The day she came along you knew you'd been found
Oh, but you blew it all chasing a feeling
Flew the plane straight into the ground

You curse the pain or try to ignore it
But neither one really helps
You know the truth you just don't want to face it
You've got no one to blame but yourself

After work you meet some friends from the office
Have a drink and try to force a smile
Then go on home to a TV dinner
And some old reruns you haven't watched in a while

You curse the pain or try to ignore it
But neither one really helps
You know the truth you just don't want to face it
You've got no one to blame but yourself

You've never been so low for so long
And you ain't getting up soon

You call her up, but you don't leave a message
You know she's through listening anyway

You curse the pain or try to ignore it
But neither one really helps
You know the truth you just don't want to face it
You've got no one to blame but yourself
