i can't be mad

the bigger picture

i'll be with ya

many years from now

so go your own way

do your own thing

i don't see it working out

gave permission

to take the easy way out

bad decision

'cause i'm here missing you now

but i can't be mad

for loving you that way

i can't be mad

i gave you my heart to break

can drown in sorrow

try to numb the pain

but i can't be mad because i'm the one to blame

seeing pictures

and i ain't with ya

no longer you and i

you don't hurt like you should

and it seems you're all good

honestly i don't know why

i gave permission

to take the easy way out

bad decision

but i won't scream and shout

baby

i can't be mad

for loving you that way

i can't be mad

i gave you my heart to break

can drown in sorrow

try to numb the pain

but i can't be mad because i'm the one to blame

oh its like broken pieces are left on a shelf

while you're looking happy

i'm going through hell

it's not the way that i thought it would be

but you'll come back to me

and i won't be mad

for loving you that way

and i can't be mad

i gave you my heart to break

i can't be mad

for loving you that way

i can't be mad

i gave you my heart to break

oh babe

drown in sorrow try to numb the pain

but i can't be mad because i'm the one to blame

yeah

i can't be mad 'cause i let you slip away
