When you love somebody more than they love you |
|
Sure you stand there lying pretendin' it's all good |
|
Walk away in denial like you'll live without 'em |
|
Either way, its catch 22 [Verse 1:] |
|
I think of how you lied when you said you chose me |
|
Thought I was your woman 'til |
|
I found my sanity |
|
Used to cry your pain |
|
What a cold game, this love thang |
|
Cuts deeper than glass |
|
I can still remember the exact words you used to control me (Damn it must be good baby) ' |
|
Cause for years those words were able to consume me |
|
Confuse me |
|
Appease me |
|
Blind me, yeah [Chorus] [Verse 2:] |
|
It's finally clear to me |
|
It was partly my fault |
|
I can't blame it all on you |
|
We both were dead wrong |
|
But you were stealin' me (me) |
|
Away from me |
|
Nobody needed me |
|
Anymore than me |
|
And it's amazing how the tears fall |
|
Water, seeds they grow to be the strength in me ' |
|
Cause I'm finally at the point (hey) |
|
Where I'm ready for the truth (hey, hey, hey) |
|
Anything I do for me to make me happy |
|
Is up to me- not you, no (no, no, no) [Chorus] [Bridge:] |
|
It's gonna hurt like hell |
|
But I'll get over you |
|
And I wish you well |
|
But I just refuse (just refuse) |
|
To give so much of me (give so much of me) ' |
|
Til there's nothing left ('til there's nothing left) |
|
Guess you can't love me baby |
|
Like I deserve, naw [Spoken word:] |
|
They say love is beautiful |
|
I'm usually more optimistic |
|
Realistically |
|
I have yet to see love's beauty outside of my reflection |
|
Via the affection |
|
I exude for you |
|
All of the fairy tales and castles, hmph |
|
I mean, I thought |
|
I touched 'em |
|
Can't hold down with one heart |
|
But I'm still optimistic, idealistic |
|
Though my eyes are misty |
|
I will patiently await and see |
|
The beauty of love |
|
All my own, all my own |
