Lyrics
How do you expect me to respect you
When all you do is cut me down
Taken my trust and you’ve taken my pride
Our relationship was built on lies
Moving in and moving out, just shut the door when you go out
This is the last time
I don’t want you coming round, bringing situations down
Why don’t you sort your head out?
I was under the illusion
Forgiving you was always confusing
Too many times, too many crimes
You’d better show yourself out
How do you expect me to respect you
When all you do is cut me down
Take a little time, take a look at my troubles too
How many ways can you cause me pain?
How you’re feeling, does it hurt you too
Does it cut you up inside
Makes you feel bad, makes you feel sad, and makes you feel blue
Gonna blame you till the day i die
??? the lies that you were spreading round
This is the last time
I don’t want you coming round, bringing situations down
Why don’t you sort your head out?
I searched deep down inside of me
For some kind of answer that i could see
I can’t believe believing you would be this easy
Cos if i would i would have done it by now
How do you expect me to respect you
When all you do is cut me down
Take a little time, take a look at my troubles too
How many ways can you cause me pain?
You’re gonna miss me, you’re gonna miss me yeah
You’re gonna need me, you’re gonna need me yeah
