Self-Inflicted Wounds (Joe Bonamassa/James House/Kevin Shirley
You got a lot of nerve blaming someone else
For your mistakes/ You got a lot of nerve offerin' up your help
When you can't carry your weight/Yeah, it's a put on you
Another late night show/ Yeah, it's a put on
Pretending you don't know/The self inflicted wounds
You did 'em on your own/Yeah you were first to draw the knife
Last to throw the stone/Oh the trust in me/I have abused
Oh take mercy on my/Self inflicted wounds
You never get away with trying to tell yourself
One of your own lies/You never get away with holding back those tears
Try not to cry/Darling,hold on/Let me try to explain
Darling, hold on/Tryin' to hold all this pain
These self inflicted wounds/I did 'em on my own
I was first to draw the knife/Last to throw the stone
Oh your trust in me/I have abused/Oh take mercy on my
Self inflicted wounds/Yeah,I'm looking for redemption
On love's hallowed ground/Yeah I'm praying for forgiveness
And I've searched around/But there's none to be found
Self inflicted wounds/I did 'em on my own
You were first to draw the knife/Last to throw the stone
Oh, the trust in me/I have abused/Oh, take mercy on my
Self inflicted wounds/Oh, have mercy on my/Self inflicted wounds
