The Poet

I've given everything I can
Just to try to make this happen
But you wouldn't even lift a hand
As you watch our foundations cracking

And oh
Isn't it a shame
You built me up so tall
Just to take it all away
And now it seems that hope
Is something I've misplaced
I left behind my soul
To be blinded by my faith

I'll always be there and don't you know it
And don't you know it and don't you know it
You say that you care but I hate the way you show it
I hate the way ya I hate the way ya show it
Consumed by regrets you bestow it
You bestow it
Taking half of my heart to make me twice the poet

I've given up on who I am
I blamed myself to bridge the gap in
I find it hard to understand
Why should I question myself for the answers I'm lacking

And oh
Isn't it a shame
I left behind my soul
To be blinded by my faith

I'll always be there and don't you know it
And don't you know it and don't you know it
You say that you care but I hate the way you show it
I hate the way ya I hate the way ya show it
Consumed by regrets you bestow it
You bestow it
Taking half of my heart to make me twice the poet

Oooo you know it
And don't you know it and don't you know it
You say that you care but I hate the way you show it
I hate the way ya I hate the way ya show it
Consumed by regrets you bestow it
You bestow it
Taking half of my heart to make me twice the poet
Make me twice the
