I tried to help you all I could
Lord knows how hard I tried
Sleepless nights I waited for you
Sleepless nights I cried
You pulled me close
Held me tight
Then pushed me far away
Tears of joy
Tears of pain
From memories of yesterday
You used to believe in LOVE –
That LOVE was what made the world turn
Now, when you speak of LOVE…
You speak of bombs and of watching it burn
You cheated on me, you fucking bastard
Have fun getting your shit out of the Dumpster!
