to love someone more then they love you

i’ve tried my hardest
but i always fall flat
do all this for just a pat
on the back
using my own hand
tried to get you closer
to me baby

what’s the point
if i just cry?
what’s the point
if you always lie?
i felt so helpless
but all you did was stare
none of this is fair
oh no

i’ve tried my hardest
but i always fall flat
do all this for just a pat
on the back
using my own hand
why did you do this to me?

you used to reach out
now i doubt if you’ll ever call back
our love, our dignity
must of been a figment
of my own imagination
if i was the only one who saw it
if i was the only one
the only one
the only one, oh woah

using my own hand
why did you do this to me?
oh, to me
oh, to me oh woah

burning all my love letters
addressed to you
but never sent
i knew you’d try to bend the rules
i’d tend to believe everything you’d say

ohh i was the only one
the only one
who saw it
