Guilt Trip Goodbye

Oh, I see those eyes, they hold the weight of tears

Whisperin’ words I hate to hear

You show up with that sad little stare

Like I’m the one who just don’t care

But I know the game you’re playing real well

Trying to write a story I’ll regret to tell

Every little move, every silent plea

Guilt trips thrown like stones at me

But I’ve learned to stand up tall and free

Won’t drown in your melancholy

Guilt trip, honey, I ain’t buyin’ what you’re sellin’

Your tears are river deep, but I ain’t sinkin'

Guilt trip, baby, I won’t be a fool anymore

This love’s a battlefield, but I’m walkin’ out that door

You wear that sorrow like a favorite coat

Blame me for the tears you never wrote

But I ain’t the villain in your endless pain

Just a cowboy tryin’ to ride again

Tears and shadows, they won’t win this fight

Won’t let your guilt turn day into night

I’ll hold my ground, I’ll make things right

But not in your guilt’s cruel light

Guilt trip, honey, I ain’t buyin’ what you’re sellin’

Your tears are river deep, but I ain’t sinkin'

Guilt trip, baby, I won’t be a fool anymore

This love’s a battlefield, but I’m walkin’ out that door

You can cry, you can lie, you can try to make me feel small

But I’ve got my pride, I won’t hide from it at all

Gather up your tears, it’s the last time I’ll fall

Guilt trip’s failed, I’ve answered the call

So goodbye, don’t look back, I’m movin’ on with no regret

Your guilt trips’ over, babe, you ain’t gonna get

What you want from me with that heavy-hearted fret

This cowboy’s free, and I ain’t done yet
