I could have been easier on you
I could have been all you held on to
I know it wasn't fair, I tried my best to care
about you
I know I could have been a better man
But I always had to have the upper hand
I'm struggling to see the better side of me
But I cant take all your jabs and taunts
Your pointing out my every fault
And you wonder why I walked away
When you tell me I'm a wreck, you say that I'm a mess
How could you expect anything less
You latched on to me then cried I strung you along
I told you when you asked, I knew this wouldnt last
At least I could be honest about that
And now you're telling everyone how I only did you wrong
I guess you never knew me at all
Remember on my 21st birthday
You took me where we went on our first date
we stayed till closing time, after four glasses of wine
You started with a pointless argument
Said that I forgot to compliment
The dress you wore that night, that I've seen a thousand times
But I think we just want different things
I want space, you want a diamond ring
Whatever made you think we were meant to be?
When you tell me I'm a wreck, you say that I'm a mess
How could you expect anything less
You latched on to me then cried I strung you along
I told you when you asked, I knew this wouldnt last
At least I could be honest about that
And now you're telling everyone how I only did you wrong
I guess you never knew me at all
When you tell me I'm a wreck, you say that I'm a mess
How could you expect anything less
When you tell me I'm a wreck, you say that I'm a mess
How could you expect anything less
You latched on to me then cried I strung you along
I told you when you asked, I knew this wouldnt last
At least I could be honest about that
And now you're telling everyone how I only did you wrong
But still I see you standing there waiting around for me to fall
Girl you must be crazy still believing you and me belong
I guess you never knew me at all
