Giving everything
For nothing in return
Some say it's selfless
But only if they say it, first
I've been bending over backwards
Trying to keep you happy
Even when I fail at that
I never stopped trying
Wanted to hear your laugh
Wanted to feel your warmth
But all I ever got
Was cold and distant from
Someone that I thought I could give my all
But they'd take advantage until I had no more
Treated me like a transaction
Not like something more
This was never meant to go further
At least now I know
At least now I know
Sometimes it's hard to get up at all
Put in so much effort
Give my life away for you
Just for you to say it's wrong
Why do I even bother
Trying anymore
At least now I know
At least now I know
