lyrics

When the best in me brings out the worst in you
And all the things you’ve got won’t be the things I’ll choose
When I’m out you’re in and when I’m in you’re not
It’s like we broke something, it’s like we lost the plot
The more you give the less I seem to take
And all the things I used to love, I hate

The more I stay with you, the more I seem to lose
I’ve seen the madness come, I’ve felt your anger too
These years of compromise have brought a great divide
I don’t want to face the truth but I don’t want to lie
The more you give the less I seem to take
And all the things I used to love I hate

You say that I’ve got something on my mind
Well what can I say
You tell me that it all works out it time
But it’s too late, it’s too late

When the best in me brings out the worst in you
And all the things you’ve got won’t be the things I’ll choose
When I’m out you’re in and when I’m in you’re not
It’s like we broke something, it’s like we lost the plot
The more you give the less I seem to take
And all the things I used to love, I hate

The more you give the less I seem to take
And all the things I used to love, I hate
