I can deal with you holding yourself down

I would have carried us through

I broke my back for you

I almost thought it was worth it

I was bled dry

Now you see it eye to eye

I broke my back for you

What a waste, what a waste



I picked you up, you let me down

I felt it pushing me down, holding me down

And now you are the one that I trusted...

No more



I gave you life



To you it was nothing

And that was the crushing embrace

Nothing, to you I was nothing



I picked you up, you let me down



I felt it pushing me down, holding me down

And now you are the one that I trusted...

No more



I gave you life



You took it for granted, you took it

You left me with nothing, you took it

You took it for granted, look at you now



I gave you life
