I invested my life, every cent I had
Spent my days and nights with the pen and the pad
While I watched all these other cats treat you bad
Just hoping one day I can bring you back
But you might be lost forever, just a memory
My love and fear turn to a dependency
I wake up with you stuck on the brain
Almost ashamed of myself, I'm in love with your games
But you don't love me the same, just in love with the fame
Thinking of letting you go 'cause you bring nothing but pain
I got nothing to say but hey, nothing's forever
Just hoping you sick of feeling under the weather
But I wish I could hear all the ills you have
But there will always be a side of you that's still a drag
I can't believe you keep treating me wrong
All the while I'm holding on, still singing you songs
After all these years you still treat me wrong
Why you keep treating me wrong?
After all these years you still treat me wrong
But I keep singing you songs
After all these years you still treat me wrong
Why you keep treating me wrong?
After all these years you still treat me wrong
But I keep singing you songs
I haven't given up hope but I've given up trying
I've given up lighting the fire that keeps dying
I've given up giving my all to get nothing
You run 100 miles and suddenly quit running
You started giving a fuck what people say
And each year you keep digging a deeper grave
I set my fears well a few too many times
Address how I feel, a few too many rhymes
I promise I'll never devote another song
'Cause it seems you're long gone, I'm just hoping I'm wrong
I'm just hoping what we having now grown is yet
But I know I'll die trying if I hold my breath
Maybe it wasn't you, maybe I've gotten old
But you lost your soul ever since you got the gold
I can't believe you keep treating me wrong
All the while I'm holding on, still singing you songs
After all these years you still treat me wrong
Why you keep treating me wrong?
After all these years you still treat me wrong
But I keep singing you songs
After all these years you still treat me wrong
Why you keep treating me wrong?
After all these years you still treat me wrong
But I keep singing you songs
