Gave You I Gave You I

You were my worst time
You were the shoreline
You were the crash and now I break
Gave you my best days
Gave you the deep pain
Gave you I, gave you I, gave you I, gave you I

Am I what you wanted?
Was I self-appointed?
I slowly moved into your house
All of my dark blue
Covered it for you
But I'm just so embarrassed now

And you did all that I wouldn't do, erasing lines around us
I held my head, I used to hold you, but now I'll walk around us
And I can't lie and claim confused when I know just what happened
You got bored, and I felt used, now I'm all sad about it

What did I ask for that I now pay for?
Would it have killed you to explain
That you weren't ready?
And you nearly told me
And, still, I gave you I, gave you I gave you I

My honest commitment
I sat and listened
I was your floorboard, holding it down
You went off running away from something
That I have nothing to do with now

And you did all that I'd never do, erasing time around us
I held my breath, I used to hold you, but now I'll walk around us
And could you not deny the truth? 'Cause I know just what happened
You got bored, and I felt used, now I'm all sad about it

When did you slip through my fingers, did I ever have you?
Was I just a placeholder to fill the hole inside you?
I've been feeling sick, but I should help myself, not call you
Nothing left to say 'cause you're not over her, now, are you?

And you did all that I wouldn't do, erasing lines around us
I held my head, I used to hold you but now I'll walk around us
And I won't lie and claim confused when I know just what happened
You got bored, and I felt used, now I'm all sad about it

Oh, you got bored, and I felt used, now I'm all sad about it
Oh, you got bored, and I felt used, now I'm all sad about it
Oh, you got bored, and I felt used, now I'm so sad about it
