Without hope, drowning in misery
I couldn't help but notice you and take some sympathy
So I tried to give you a helping hand,
but somehow you wound up taking more than I had ever planned, and now it seems;
For all the messes that I've made,
I was never afraid of sharing
But you took all that you could take,
I guess I made the mistake of caring
I know that I shouldn't be so surprised,
I should've seen the malice in those puppy-dog eyes
Maybe I just chose to ignore my fears,
but somehow I fell victim to your crocodile tears
and now I know...
...why your weakness seems so odd.
'Cause it's just a facade you're wearing
Of all the rules that I could break,
my biggest mistake was caring for you
And I know you too well my friend,
To let you knock me off my horse again
Perhaps you don't know what you've done,
Still, you know a sucker when you see one
And I must be sucker number one
For all the messes that I made,
I was never afraid of sharing
But you took all that you could take,
I guess I made the mistake of caring for you
For you, oh,
I've been a bigger fool than I believed
Am I wearing a target on my back?
Or a sign that says "easily deceived"?
I'm learning how to recognize the truth,
Finding I'm better off without you
