Lyrics
I blame the future • I blame the past • I blame the things in life that start but never last • I blame the highway • I blame the tracks • I blame momentum that is pushing me too fast, way too fast • I blame the Gulf Stream • I blame the cold • I blame the weather • I blame the snow • I blame forever • I blame the sea • I blame the devil who put these thoughts in me • I blame the fault lines • I blame the coast • But I don't blame the Father, Son or Holy Ghost, oh no • I blame the long drive • I blame my bed • I blame the silence where a thank you should be said • I blame the grave yard • I blame disease • I blame the evil that can travel in a breeze and bring me to my knees • I blame the dark clouds that hide the truth • And if you love me well I don't blame you • I blame the rhythm • I blame the blues • And if you leave me I won't blame you • I blame December • The plants that froze • I blame the hurt inside that I could never show • I could take you with me when I go • But if we stumble I blame the snow • I blame the houses lined up in rows • But above all else I blame the snow •
