I could have been easier on you
I could have been all you held onto
I know I wasnt fairI 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
Im struggling to see the better side of me
But I cant take all your jabs and taunts
Youre pointing out my every fault
And you wonder why I walked away
When you tell me Im a wreck
You say that Im a mess
How could you expect anything less
You latched onto me then cried that 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 youre 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 timeafter 4glasses of wine
You started with a pointless argument
You said that I forgot to compliment
The dress you wore that night
That Ive seen a thousand times
But I think we just want different things
I want spaceyou want a diamond ring
Whatever made you think we were meant to be
When you tell me Im a wreck
You say that Im a mess
How could you expect anything less
You latched onto me then cried that 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 youre telling everyone
How I only did you wrong
I guess you never knew me at all
You tell me I'm a wreck
You say that Im a mess
How could you expect anything less
When you tell me Im a wreck
You say that Im a mess
How could you expect anything less
You latched onto me then cried that 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 youre telling everyone
How I only did you wrong
Still I see you standing there
Waiting round for me to fall
Girl you must be crazy
Still believing you and me belong
I guess you never knew me at all
