Least of It

Well I loved your pedestal, I loved my hope

I was drowning in the dredges, you threw me a rope

The rope got tighter as time went by,

I couldn’t let go because, well

You’d look me in the eye, you said you could see me

You said that you knew what it felt like to be me

And one time I dreamt

We weren’t just a beautiful wreck

Cause you’d listen like a friend and you’d kiss like a passionate fool

And I never saw you sober but somehow I still thought you were cool

And now you tell your friends that I ran away

That’s always what you say but you forget the bit

Where you gave your loving and I got the least of it

Well you always had your women but you made it seem like

They were nothing special when compared to me

That I was who you trusted the most of all

And I was the one you would call back

But after awhile your excuses were lame

And I became the loser in your dumb little game

I felt like a fool

And then you made me out to be the problem

But you’d listen like a friend and you’d kiss like a passionate fool

And I never saw you sober but somehow I still thought you were cool

And now you tell your friends that I ran away

That’s always what you say but you forget the bit

Where you gave your loving and I got the least of it

You wanted me to be your pet and come whenever called

I know you’re just a lonely thing, but it’s really still your fault

Cause you’d listen like a friend and you’d kiss like a passionate fool

And I never saw you sober but somehow I still thought you were cool

And now you tell your friends that I ran away

That’s always what you say but you forget the bit

Where you gave your loving and I got the least of it

You gave your loving and I got the least of it
