fallin in the end

What's it gonna take to finally convince you?
What do I do to make you finally see
That what you're doing makes you look the fool,
But hey, that's alright with me.
You're telling all your friends how rough life has been,
and makin sure I get all the blame.
But darlin you're forgettin the best part of the story
and from where all these troubles came.

You've brought this house of cards down on yourself
You're the one who started spittin in the wind.
You're puttin all your energy into diggin this pit for me,
But you'll be the one who is fallin in, in the end
oh yeah
You'll be the one fallin in the end.

I can honestly say you weren't this cantankerous
When we first hooked up in eighty five
But over the years, Lord! How things have changed
And now there ain't even a Cheshire smile

Baby, I made lots of mistakes along this bumpy way
I can count them up just as good as you
And maybe redemption's not what your lookin for
But this hell ain't something I'm gonna go through

You've brought this house of cards down on yourself
You're the one who started spittin in the wind.
You're puttin all your energy into diggin this pit for me,
But you'll be the one who is fallin in, in the end
oh yeah
You'll be the one fallin in the end.
