Place the Blame...

A Poem

Place the Blame...

When the truth is lost it’s easy to Place the Blame.

To accuse the wind of blowing out the flame.

To become a part in a silent play…

And mouth the words because they are too hard to say.

When your life’s where you don’t want it…

The feelings won’t retain.

When you’re going round in that circle…

Time and time again.

When you’re stuck in today…

With fading memories that remain.

It’s all so easy…

Just to Place the Blame.

When tomorrow isn’t yesterday…

Today just ain't the same.

What happened to those promises ?

What happened to those days ?

Where is the light at the end of the tunnel ?

It never failed to show the way.

It’s all so easy...

Just to Place the Blame…

It’s all so easy...

Just to Place the Blame.

Is it You or is it Me ?

Blind eyes, they never see.

Yet our hearts they break...

So God damn easily…

There’s a time and a place...

When we all fall from grace…

We hide our disgrace...

In the face of you and me…

Saint or Sinner…

We all bleed the same…

Wrong or right…

We all Place the Blame.
