LYRICS:
Blame it on the time 
Blame it on the writings on the wall
Blame it on our minds
Blame it on the alcohol 
Blame it on the things, things we can't control 
Blame it on the stars, blame it on this big black hole 

None of it will help
Cause I blame myself 
I've been holding out, holding out 
I'm so far past numb 
My heart's a broken drum 
I've been playing out, playing out  

I'm a shell, I'm a skeleton
I am flesh and blood alone 
I can move but won't be moved 
You're one more thing for me to lose 
And I am breaking at the bone 

Blame it on the night, blame it on the cold December sun 
Blame it on the light, blame it on the clouds that we fell from 
Blame it on the Patron Saint of California
Blame it on this nocturnal thing that I've become 

There's an empty sea 
Where this heart used to be 
I've been holding on, holding on
Currents running wild 
You're searching for my smile
You've been holding on, holding on

I'm a shell, I'm a skeleton
I am flesh and blood alone 
I can move but won't be moved 
You're one more thing for me to lose 
And I am breaking at the bone 

I'm a shell, I'm a skeleton
I am flesh and blood alone 
I can move but won't be moved 
You're one more thing I'm gonna lose 
And I am breaking at the bone
