I could've been easier on you
I could've been all you held on to
I know I wasn't fair
I tried my best to care about you
I know I could've been a better man
But always had to have the upper hand
I'm struggling to see the better side of me
But I can't take all you jabs and taunts,
You're 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 wouldn't 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 when we went on our first date
We stayed out till closing time
After 4 glasses of wine
You started with a pointless argument,
You 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 wouldn't 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 wouldn't last
At least I could be honest about that
And now you're telling everyone how I only did you
wrong
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
