Maybe longer
Yes it's true, I'm no good at being the strong man
You're stronger

But I think, maybe you should take a good look
At my feelings
Can't you see, I'm another one just like you
A human being

I don't want to have to sacrifice to have to get along
I don't ever want to be the one to say I'm wrong
I may hate you sometimes, but I'll always love you

What did you say, it's so hard for me to remember
What you meant
How did it happen, was it preconceived
Or a complete accident

I still recall, we were once happy together
Smiling faces
But things have changed and now you're only happy
When I remember where my place is

I don't want to have to live up to your expectations
I don't ever want to be the one to end relations
I may hate you sometimes but I'll always love you

Do you think you could treat me
Like somebody special?
I can't be everything to everybody
Could I at least be something to you?

Don't look so surprised, I'm a little smarter
Than every other weakling
Say no more, I know exactly what you're going to say
Without you speaking

A familiar phrase, I've heard it said often before
Please forgive me
Don't be a fool, if I can't live with myself
How could you live with me?

Now that I'm filled with emotion you're dispassionate
You only live for yourself while I live to regret
But don't ever think that I could easily forget
Because I'm damned if I do and I'm damned if I don't

I said that I would but now I know that I won't
And the chance of being right is looking kind of remote

I may hate you sometimes, I may hate you sometimes
I may hate you sometimes but I'll always love you
I may hate you sometimes but I'll always love you

Maybe longer
Yes it's true, I'm no good at being the strong man
