Story Behind The Song
This was written after dealing with a family member who was making endless excuses about their life being a train wreck and blaming the people who had been supportive and patient and understanding rather than taking any personal responsibility. It's also a cautionary tale to myself not to ever let myself do the same thing.
Song Description
This is a song about being fed up with someone who is critical and blames everyone else for their problems and situation life. It's about calling someone on their BS and telling them they have no right to be a victim and that the only person they're convincing is themselves which ultimately does them no good and is destructive.

Lyrics
Well that's great. Tell me again how ya can't take another minute of it
You need a break from all the little people dragging you down dragging you down
Can't wait... you're really over it
Can't escape from all you're thinking 'bout
Can't stay with all the little people hanging around hanging around
They say you gettin' what you're giving
So quit blaming everybody else
Someday you're gonna have to reckon
With all the little lies you've been telling to yourself
You left me there when you put your foot on the throttle
I let you drown when you chose to go down in a bottle
I know you think nobody knows what you're doing
But let me tell you one thing
It's just you that you're fooling
You say you're sick and tired of the head game that they've been running on ya
You play like all your friends are busy leading you on leading you on
So what's changed? What's so special 'bout you today?
I'd put my money on "you're insane"
Always blaming people for stringing you on stringing you on
You left me there...
