Who toke the sunlight out of your sky?
Who watched as life was passing you by?
Who let the truth turn into a lie?
It was I, it was I
Who said I'll be there if you just wait?
Went the time came it was too late
Who broke your wings so you couldn't fly?
It was I, it was I
I take the blame
But who else should
I'd change the past
If only I could
And keep you safe
And keep you whole
I'd take the blame
God save my soul
Who swore to answer all your prayers?
Heal all your bruises
Dry all your tears
Who wasn't there and can tell you why
It was I, it was I
I say your name
I lie awake
It seems the dawn will never break
One day for me
The bell will toll
I say your name
God save my soul
Who toke the sunlight out of your sky?
Who watched as life was passing you by?
Who let the truth turn into a lie?
It was I, it was I
I take the blame
But who else should
I'd change the past
If only I could
And keep you safe
And keep you whole
I'd take the blame
God save my soul
