I Give, You Take

If you cut, I will bleed, bring me down to my knees
Make me feel what I am is never good enough
Can you help me understand? Thought I made you a better man
Guess somehow another way things just change

It seems just like a distant memory that you used to be
Good for me but, baby, now it's clear

I give, you take, somehow it's gonna break
I pray for the strength, I hate to say, I know it can't go on this way
I give, you take, I know we're gonna break
And it hurts my soul, I hate to say, we can't go on this way

With your words you pull me in, I always lose I just can't win
And though I see, my heart is blind it gives in every time
You got me on constant repeat, I need a cure or a remedy
'Cause if I stay there won't be nothing left for me

I give, you take, somehow it's gonna break
I pray for the strength, I hate to say, I know it can't go on this way
I give, you take, I know we're gonna break
And it hurts my soul, I hate to say, we can't go on this way

Now there's nothing left for us to save and only bitterness remains
What we have is like a house of cards and it's falling apart
Now it's impossible to get it back with the bridges that you've burned
I guess it's time to walk away 'cause now it's so clear

I give, you take, somehow it's gonna break
I pray for the strength, I hate to say, I know it can't go on this way
I give, you take, I know we're gonna break
And it hurts my soul, I hate to say, we can't go on this way
