I am the only one to blame for thisSomehow it all adds up the sameSoaring on the wings of selfish prideI flew too high and like Icarus I collideWith a world I try so hard to leave behindTo rid myself of all but love,To give and die To turn away and not becomeAnother nail to pierce the skin of one who lovesMore deeply than the oceans,More abundant than the tearOf a world embracing every heartache Can I be the one to sacrificeOr grip the spear and watch the blood and water flow To love you - take my world apartTo need you - I am on my kneesTo love you - take my world apartTo need you - broken on my knees All said and done I stand aloneAmongst remains of a life I should not ownIt takes all I am to believeIn the mercy that covers me Did you really have to die for me?All I am for all you areBecause what I need and what I believe are worlds apart And I pray,To love you - take my world apartTo need you - I am on my kneesTo love you - take my world apartTo need you - broken on my knees I look beyond the empty crossForgetting what my life has costAnd wipe away the crimson stainsAnd dull the nails that still remainsMore and more I need you now,I owe you more each passing hourThe battle between grace and prideI gave up not so long agoSo steal my heart and take the painAnd wash the feet and cleanse my prideTake the selfish, take the weak,And all the things I cannot hideTake the beauty, take my tearsThe sin and soaked heart and make it yoursTake my world all apartTake it now, take it nowAnd serve the ones that I despiseSpeak the words I can't denyWatch the world I used to loveFall to dust and thrown awayI look beyond the empty crossForgetting what my life has costSo wipe away the crimson stainsAnd dull the nails that still remainSo steal my heart and take the painTake the selfish, take the weakAnd all the things I cannot hideTake the beauty, take my tearsTake my world apart, take my world apartI pray, I pray, I prayTake my world apart Worlds Apart.

I simply searched 'am i the one to blame' in the google search box, this is what popped up. I was about to exit it, when I just continued to read it. It really hit home, thank you for giving me encouragement by posting this.
