The Reckoning

[Verse 1]
He said, “Hey bro, I’m comin’, save me a bed”
Couple cold beers and a long talk ahead
Stayed up ‘til four just shootin’ the breeze
Like old times, felt like family to me

Then y’all rolled back in for the Fourth of July
Fireworks lit, but she never met my eye
Got the silent treatment and a side of cold
Guess I’m the villain in a story she wrote

[Chorus]
But it ain’t my fault she don’t like me
Ain’t my house that’s feelin’ icy
I opened my door, yeah I played it right
She’s throwin’ shade, but I sleep fine at night
I ain’t gonna beg, ain’t gonna fake it
If there’s a problem, she can say it
He said “Sorry,” but I ain’t the crime
If love’s a war, I’m just caught in the line

[Verse 2]
She walks in like I burned the toast
Like bein’ myself was a little too close
He just shrugs, says “Man, she’s like that”
Guess I’m wearin' her grudge like a welcome mat

You can keep your whispers and your sideways looks
I don’t need drama where the fishin’ hooks
If bein’ real’s what rubbed her wrong
Then go on, girl—write your breakup song

[Chorus]
But it ain’t my fault she don’t like me
Ain’t my heart that’s actin' dicey
I gave y’all a place and a damn good time
She gave me the glare and the quiet decline
I ain’t gonna chase what don’t wanna stay
If somethin’ broke, it broke her way
He said “Sorry,” but I ain't to blame
Some folks throw fire, then dodge the flame

[Bridge]
Let me guess—it’s somethin’ I said?
Or maybe the way I live in her head
Free rent’s cool, but I charge for peace
And her cold war ain’t hurtin’ me

[Final Chorus]
It ain’t my fault she don’t like me
I ain’t losin' sleep nightly
I stood my ground with an open hand
She built a wall I don’t understand
So here’s to the ones who stay real true
And the ones who smile but are see-through
He said “Sorry,” and that’s just fine—
But tell her next time: that guilt ain’t mine

That Guilt Ain't Mine

Back In The Country
