Lyrics:

[Intro] [Whimsical music box melody, slightly off-key]

[Verse 1] [Slightly distorted vocals, echoing]
Kaleidoscope eyes, are staring through me
Said I’m the reason, the birds don’t sing free
Swirling suspicions, like tea leaves in a cup
Blaming me for rain, when the clouds rumble up

[Pre-Chorus] [Tempo slows slightly, more introspective]
Is it my fault the moon, has craters on its face?
Did I break the sunrise, and shatter all its grace?

[Chorus] [Slightly louder, more defiant tone]
Sorry for all the bad things, I haven’t done
The wars I didn’t start, beneath the setting sun
The tears I didn’t cause, the hearts I didn’t break
Another fall guy, for goodness sake

[Verse 2] [Music becomes slightly more chaotic, with reversed cymbal crashes]
She paints me villain, in shades of toxic green
Says I stole the laughter, from her royal queen
Accuses me of whispers, carried on the breeze
While she dances barefoot, through fields of unease

[Pre-Chorus] [More urgent, drums become more prominent]
Is it my fault the stars forget to shine at night?
Did I steal the color, and leave the world monochrome white?

[Chorus] [Stronger, more sarcastic]
Sorry for all the bad things, I haven’t done
The shadows I didn’t cast, when day is said and done
The promises unspoken, the dreams I didn’t steal
Another scapegoat, how very real

[Bridge] [Tempo slows dramatically, almost a cappella with minimal instrumentation]
Maybe I’m a monster, a figment of her fears
A convenient target, to soak up all the tears
But even monsters tire, of shouldering the blame
Of confessing to crimes, that whisper my name

[Chorus] [Music swells, a final burst of defiance, then fades rapidly]
Sorry for all the bad things, I haven’t done
The silent accusations, before the battles won
The guilt I didn’t earn, the price I didn’t pay
Just another demon, to chase the light away

[Outro] [Music box melody returns, slower, more distorted, then abruptly stops]
[Sound of a single, echoing cough]
