God Complex (acoustic demo)

When will you love me like I love you?
When will you be there for me like you promised to?
All of us is wrapped up in a dusty old sweater your grandfather used to wear
It stays in the corner of my closet with the memories of last year

Oh, you used to treat me so well
Now you're out there and I'm still here and I don't stand a chance
I'm stuck between heaven and hell
I took the elevator while you took the stairs
You don't know what you have when you have it
Tell me that I'm more than just your bad habit

When did you look at me and change your mind?
Swear that you love me then blame it on the bad time
I miss who I was back when all you wanted was me
More than anything
Before the world fell apart, our stories turned to scars
And the dead needed burying

Oh, you used to treat me so well
Now you're out there and I'm still here and I don't stand a chance
I'm stuck between heaven and hell
I took the elevator while you took the stairs
You don't know what you have when you have it
Tell me that I'm more than just your bad habit

Dancing around near Disney in the pouring rain
Told you I loved you too soon but you felt the same
Easter and Christmas and talking to your dad while he's doing the dishes
Each night you held me while I cried
And seeing my future when I looked at your life
You're everything I ever wanted to be
I hate that you get to be you and I'm stuck as me
My self-hatred and your god complex
Pushing our limits 'til there's nothing left
And I screamed at the Father on your behalf
Asking him why the f he would allow that
Angry little kid on a skateboard to be so hurt
I turned around and I loved you way too much

Oh, you used to treat me so well
Now you're out there and I'm still here and I don't stand a chance
I'm stuck between heaven and hell
I took the elevator while you took the stairs
You don't know what you have when you have it
And did I ever have you?
Tell me that I'm more
Please tell me that I'm more
Tell me that I'm more

Da da da da da da da da

I turned around and I loved you way too much
