I Gave You Everything Lyrics

So this is how you treat a friend

Who's stood by you for oh-so-many years

Now don't go trying to pretend

You couldn't do any more to avoid those tears

Are you self-obsessed or just set to self-destruct

You can shut your eyes in time

But the mirror doesn't lie

I gave you everything

But it didn't seem to matter in the end

I gave you everything

Still you always wanted more

More than I could give

You know I answered every call

And the only thing you left me was the blame

And now you've taken quite a fall

You were just the moth drawn to the brightest flame

Was it just your greed

Or did you need to see me crawl

Digging a hole so deep

All the promises you wouldn't keep

I gave you everything

But it didn't seem to matter in the end

I gave you everything

Still you always wanted more

More than I could give

Are you self-obsessed or just set to self-destruct

You can shut your eyes in time

But the mirror doesn't lie

I gave you everything

But it didn't seem to matter in the end

I gave you everything

Still you always wanted more

More than I could give

I gave you everything

And a lot of good it did us in the end

I'd have done anything

Once upon another time but

Never again
