It Isn't Always Mine
Well, I thought you might be adding
To the party I was having
So I went ahead and called you on the phone
Even though you were excited
I said you were invited
Well, you never brought a present of your own
And even though you might think,
"All I gotta be is me."
That doesn't mean that you can't take responsibility
And if you lay it on the line
It isn't always mine
Well, even though my friends adored you
From the moment that they saw you
That's not a good excuse to keep you 'round
Go ahead and wear your lampshade
Make believe you understand
They'd see right through you
If they bothered to look down
And even though they might think
That you're right in every way
That doesn't mean you're right
'Cause you make believe and say
It's my fault every time
When it isn't always mine
You always went too far
When there really was no need
Your problems never are
As bad as they could be
It doesn't matter that you've parted
'Cause you know the party started
Long before you set your foot inside the door
And when I close the door behind you
I doubt that I will mind you aren't here
Just like I didn't mind before
And even though you might think
I believed your little song
You were singing to yourself
I knew that all along
You were handing me a line
When you knew it wasn't mine
And it isn't always mine
No Siempre es Mío
Pensé que podrías sumarte
A la fiesta que estaba teniendo
Así que te llamé por teléfono
Aunque estabas emocionado
Dije que estabas invitado
Pero nunca trajiste un regalo propio
Y aunque puedas pensar
'Lo único que debo ser es yo'
Eso no significa que no puedas hacerte responsable
Y si lo pones en claro
No siempre es mío
Aunque mis amigos te adoraron
Desde el momento en que te vieron
Esa no es una buena excusa para tenerte cerca
Adelante, usa tu pantalla de lámpara
Haz como que entiendes
Ellos te verían a través
Si se molestaran en mirar abajo
Y aunque puedan pensar
Que tienes razón en todo
Eso no significa que lo estés
Porque finges y dices
Que es mi culpa cada vez
Cuando no siempre es mío
Siempre te pasabas de la raya
Cuando realmente no era necesario
Tus problemas nunca son
Tan malos como podrían ser
No importa que te hayas ido
Porque sabes que la fiesta comenzó
Mucho antes de que pusieras un pie dentro de la puerta
Y cuando cierre la puerta detrás tuyo
Dudo que me importe que no estés aquí
Así como no me importaba antes
Y aunque puedas pensar
Que creí tu pequeña canción
Que cantabas para ti mismo
Yo sabía todo el tiempo
Me estabas dando una excusa
Cuando sabías que no era mía
Y no siempre es mío
