lyrics

Every minute this gets harder
and I wonder if it's me
It started out so good,
every day was like a dream
After so damn long
things were bound to go wrong
And I can’t keep on dancing
to this same old song

I give everything I have
And you just take, take, take
And I can't stand being in this state

Worry keeps me up at night
and I can hardly sleep
Got to work my way in front of it
and out from underneath
No matter how I try to help
you’re only in it for yourself
So I think I’ll take my chances
somewhere else

I give everything I have
And you just take, take, take
And I can't stand being in this state

I mended so many fences
You'd think I'd learn from all this practice
that when it rains, it’s gonna pour
I can't recall when I wasn't tangled
and I feel guilty I can't handle
what we have between us anymore

I give everything I have
And you just take, take, take
And I can't stand being in this state
No, I can't stand being in this state
