Lyrics for Guilty Party

You're sleeping night and day How d'you do it? Me I am wide awake Feeling defeated I say your name I say I'm sorry I know it's not working I'm no holiday It's nobody's fault No guilty party We just got nothing Nothing left to say Another year gets away Another summer of love I don't know why I care We miss it every summer I say your name I say I'm sorry I'm the one doing this There's no other way It's nobody's fault No guilty party I just got nothing, nothing left to say It all, all catches up to me It all, all catches up to me all the time I say your name I say I'm sorry I know it's not working, I'm no holiday It's nobody's fault No guilty party We just got nothing, nothing left to say I say your name I say I'm sorry I'm the one doing this, there's no other way It's nobody's fault No guilty party I just got nothing, nothing left to say It all, all just catches up to me It all, all catches up to me all the time
