Where Lies The Blame?

Here I am caught in this landslide of emotion

wounded mind fighting to stay afloat in this ocean

pride makes my voice catch when I try to say

"everything will be fine" when I know that today

might just be the first day of the end of it all

maybe I've made you stumble, and started your fall

could I possibly have ruined this with such ease and precision?

only time will tell how perfect I've made this incision

mayhaps nothing will come of this mistake

but perhaps my role in this story is the snake

tempting adam to taste of the forbidden fruit

and now we know there's a reason for my ill repute

because I'm only strong enough to sow the seeds

of doubt and watch as your will concedes

but I'll never be strong enough to take the blame

when it rightfully lies upon my shoulders, for shame
