Issues - Your Sake

[Intro]
Oh-oh
Baby, love

[Verse 1]
I don't love you like you think I do
It's not because I found somebody new
It's not because of anything you did
It's because of what I've failed to do

[Pre-Chorus]
I can't live with this guilt
I won't put you through hell
No more than I've already caused you
Hurts to say I blame myself
I know you're holding on
God must've built me wrong
I hate who I was in the dark
But now the lights are coming on

[Chorus]
Wish I could be somebody else for your sake
I'm only lying to myself if I stay
I'll cherish everything we have to this day
Wish I could be somebody else for your sake
Wish I could be somebody else
Wish I could be somebody else
I'm only lying to myself if I stay
I swear I'd be somebody else for your sake

[Verse 2]
I don't love you like you think I do
I'm just in love with all that we've been through
You're always bringing out the best in me
And I don't wanna lose a friend in you, oh

[Pre-Chorus]
I can't live with this guilt
I won't put you through hell
No more than I've already caused you
Hurts to say I blame myself
I know you're holding on
God must've built me wrong
I hate who I was in the dark
But now the lights are coming on

[Chorus]
Wish I could be somebody else for your sake
I'm only lying to myself if I stay
I'll cherish everything we have to this day
Wish I could be somebody else for your sake
Wish I could be somebody else
Wish I could be somebody else
I'm only lying to myself if I stay
I swear I'd be somebody else for your sake

[Bridge]
It's taken all I have in me
To tell you to your face
That all I have in me
Is nothing you can change
I never had a choice
And that's more than you can take
But I swear that if I did
You know what I would say

[Chorus]
Wish I could be somebody else for your sake
I'd just be lying to myself if I stayed
I'll cherish everything we have to this day
I swear I'd be somebody else
Wish I could be somebody else for your sake
I'm only lying to myself if I stay
I'll cherish everything we have to this day
Wish I could be somebody else for your sake
Wish I could be somebody else
Wish I could be somebody else
I'm only lying to myself if I stay
I swear I'd be somebody else for your sake

[Outro]
I'm only lying to myself if I stay
I'll never be somebody else for your sake
