Once in a while a song a hits an emotion that feels personal. Sky Ferreira was on The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon on Thursday April 3, 2014. The band performed I Blame Myself.
There’s just something magical to me about this song. After this aired I probably played it 20 times while I worked.
The laser show and performance were mesmerizing. Sky Ferreira’s album Night Time, My Time was released on October 29, 2013. Ferreira is currently the opening act for the Miley Cyrus Bangerz Tour.
Here are the lyrics:
Is it because you know my name?
Or is it because you saw my face on the cover?
Either way it’s all the same
It’s like talking to a friend who’s trying to be your lover
Underneath it all
I know it’s not your fault
That you don’t understand
I blame myself
How could you know what it feels like to fight the hounds of hell?
You think you know me so well
How could you know what it feels like to be outside yourself?
You think you know me so well
I just want you to realize I blame, I blame myself
I blame myself for my reputation
I’m just a face without a choice
A choice you’d never like to guess what I think above the shoulders
10 years old without a voice
I feel like nothing’s really changed
Now I’m just a little older
Underneath it all
I know it’s not your fault
That you don’t understand
I blame myself
How could you know what it feels like to fight the hounds of hell?
You think you know me so well
How could you know what it feels like to be outside yourself?
You think you know me so well
I just want you to realize I blame, I blame myself
Blame, blame, blame myself
I blame, I blame, blame myself for my reputation
I blame myself
I blame myself
I blame myself
I blame myself
How could you know what it feels like to fight the hounds of hell?
You think you know me so well
How could you know what it feels like to be outside yourself?
You think you know me so well
I just want you to realize I blame, I blame myself
Blame, blame, blame myself
I blame, I blame, blame myself for my reputation
I blame myself
I blame myself
I blame myself
I blame myself
