Tell Me I'm A Wreck by Every Avenue
I could've been easier on you
I could've been all you held onto
I (1)________ I wasn't fair, I tried my best to care about you
I know I could've been a better man
But I always had to have the upper hand
I'm struggling to see the (2)____________ (3)________ of me
But I can't take all your (4)________ and taunts
You're pointing out my every fault
And you wonder why I (5)____________ away
When you tell me I'm a wreck
You say that I'm a mess
How could you (6)____________ anything less?
You latched onto me then (7)__________ (8)________ I strung you along
I (9)________ you when you asked
I knew this wouldn't last
At least I could be honest about that
And now you're telling everyone
How I only did you wrong
I guess you (10)__________ (11)________ me at all
Remember on my 21st birthday
You took me where we went on our first date
We stayed till closing time, after 4 glasses of wine
You (12)______________ with a pointless argument
You said that I forgot to compliment
The dress you wore that night
That I've (13)________ a thousand times
But I think we just want different things
I want space, you want a (14)______________ ring
Whatever made you think we were (15)__________ to be?
When you tell me I'm a wreck
You say that I'm a mess
How (16)__________ you (17)____________ anything less?
You (18)______________ (19)________ me (20)________ cried that I strung you along
I told you when you asked
I knew (21)________ wouldn't last
At least I could be (22)____________ about that
And now you're (23)______________ everyone
How I (24)________ did you wrong
I guess you (25)__________ knew me at all
You tell me I'm a wreck
You say that I'm a mess
How (26)__________ you expect anything less
When you tell me I'm a wreck
You say that I'm a mess
How could you expect anything less?
You latched onto me then cried that I strung you along
I told you when you asked
I knew this wouldn't last
At least I could be honest about that
And now you're telling everyone
How I only did you wrong
Still I see you standing there
Waiting 'round for me to fall
Girl you must be crazy
Still believing you and me belong
I guess you never (27)________ me at all.
