Excuses (Acoustic)

(Ooo, oo)
(Ooo, oo)

I'm the queen of second chances
I'll make every effort to see your side
But slowly you've taken advantage,
And I see I need to draw the line

I believed in you
I had hope for you
Didn't want to give up this fight
But if you say you care,
then why are you so scared
When the truth is brought to light?

Oh why do you only give excuses
when I call you out?
I don't expect much,
but is it so hard to
Make an effort to be there for me too?

(Instrumental)

I've thought of calling,
but I told myself I'd wait for you first
Funny how much time has come and gone
and there still hasn't been a single ring

I believed in you
I had hope for you
Didn't want to give up this fight
But if you say you care,
then why are you so scared
When the truth is brought to light?

Oh why do you only give excuses
when I call you out?
I don't expect much,
but is it so hard to
Make an effort to be there for me too?

Here we are, you let me down again
But you'll pretend it's all grand
Changing the subject,
instead of changing your mind
or showing the slightest fight for us
Here we are, you let me down again
But you'll pretend it's all grand
Changing the subject,
instead of changing your mind
Honey I don't think you're worth my time
Anymore

I believed in you
I had hope for you
Didn't want to give up this fight
But if you say you care,
then why are you so scared
Of actually following through?

Oh why do you only give excuses
when I call you out?
No, I don't expect much
but is it so hard to
Make an effort to be there for me too?

Why won't you fight for this?
How I wish you'd fight for this
I know you'll wish that you had fought for us

Why won't you fight for this?
How I wish you'd fight for this
I know you'll wish that you had fought for us
