it could all be simple. . .
but you'd rather make it hard.
loving you is like a battle
& we both end up with scars.
tell me who i have to be
to get some reciprocity
'cause no one loves you more than me
& no one ever will
is this just a silly game
that forces you to act this way?
forces you to scream my name
then pretend that you can't stay
tell me who i have to be
to get some reciprocity
see no one loves you more than me
& no one ever will
no matter how i think we grow
you always seem to let me know,
it ain't working, it ain't working
& when i try to walk away
you hurt yourself to make me stay
this is crazy, this is crazy
i keep letting you back in
how can i explain myself?
as painful as this thing has been
i just can't be with no one else
see, i know what we've got to do
you let go & i'll let go to
'caues no one's hurt me more than you
& no one over will
no matter how i think we grow
you always seem to let me know,
it ain't working, it ain't working
& when i try to walk away
you hurt yourself to make me stay
this is crazy, this is crazy
care for me, care for me,
i know you care for me
there for me, there for me
said you'd be there for me
cry for me, cry for me
you said you'd die for me
give to me, give to me
why won't you live for me?

where were you. . .when i needed you?
