Resentment

I wish I could believe you then I´ll be alright
But now everything you told me really don´t apply
To the way I feel inside
Loving you was easy once upon a time
But now my suspicions of you have multiplied
And it´s all because you lied
[Chorus:]
I only give you a hard time
´Cause I can´t go on and pretend like
I haven´t tried to forget this
But I´m much too full of resentment
Just can´t seem to get over the way you hurt me
Don´t know how you gave another who didn´t mean a thing, no
The very thing you gave to me
I thought I could forgive you and I know you´ve changed
As much as I wanna trust you I know it ain´t the same
And it´s all because you lied
[Chorus:]
I only give you a hard time
´Cause I can´t go on and pretend like
I haven´t tried to forget this
But I´m much too full of resentment
I may never understand why
I´m doing the best that I can and I
I tried and I tried to forget this
I´m much too full of resentment
I´ll always remember feeling like I was no good
Like I couldn´t do it for you like your mistress could
And it´s all because you lied
[Bridge:]
Loved you more than ever
More than my own life
The best part of me I gave you
It was sacrificed
And it´s all because you lied
[Chorus:]
I only give you a hard time
´Cause I can´t go on and pretend like
I tried and I tried to forget this
But I´m too damn full of resentment
I know she was attractive but I was here first
Been ridin´ with you for six years why did I deserve
To be treated this way by you, you
I know your probably thinking what´s up with Bee
I been crying for too long what did you do to me
I used to be so strong but now you took my soul
I´m crying cant stop crying cant stop crying
You could of told me that you wasn´t happy
I know you didn´t wanna hurt me
But look what you done-done to me now
I gotta look at her in her eyes and see she´s half of me
How could you lie
But now everything you told me really don´t apply
To the way I feel inside
Loving you was easy once upon a time
But now my suspicions of you have multiplied
And it´s all because you lied
[Chorus:]
I only give you a hard time
´Cause I can´t go on and pretend like
I haven´t tried to forget this
But I´m much too full of resentment
Just can´t seem to get over the way you hurt me
Don´t know how you gave another who didn´t mean a thing, no
The very thing you gave to me
I thought I could forgive you and I know you´ve changed
As much as I wanna trust you I know it ain´t the same
And it´s all because you lied
[Chorus:]
I only give you a hard time
´Cause I can´t go on and pretend like
I haven´t tried to forget this
But I´m much too full of resentment
I may never understand why
I´m doing the best that I can and I
I tried and I tried to forget this
I´m much too full of resentment
I´ll always remember feeling like I was no good
Like I couldn´t do it for you like your mistress could
And it´s all because you lied
[Bridge:]
Loved you more than ever
More than my own life
The best part of me I gave you
It was sacrificed
And it´s all because you lied
[Chorus:]
