"Resentment"
(J. Miller/ ©Venus Songs (ASCAP))
When the world was painted black
When it fell apart
Though there was no turning back
I stuck by your heart
Overlooked like nothing's there
Blaming me for the crime
Calling me out for things you did
Making me pay the price
Going 'round saying I'm a "cheat"
Throwing stones to prove yourself
Got no spine like an old book and nothing left to tell
If you don't like what I'm saying
It makes you feel disgraced
Maybe you shouldn't have said it at all in the first place?
[Chorus]
I know, I know, I know
I can't deny it
I've tried, I've tried, I've tried
I've tried to fight it
Lost in the storm
My heart hates what you've left it
Now loving you has become my Resentment
Suddenly things aren't what they seem
Truth takes on a disguise
Gave you everything
Never asked for anything
You destroyed my smile
Going 'round saying I'm a "cheat"
Throwing stones to prove yourself
Got no spine like an old book and nothing left to tell
If you don't like what I'm saying
It makes you feel disgraced
Maybe you shouldn't have said it at all in the first place?
[Chorus]
[Chorus]
Ooh, ooh
[Chorus]
My Resentment...
[Chorus]
When the world was painted black
When it fell apart
Though there was no turning back
I stuck by your heart
Overlooked like nothing's there
Blaming me for the crime
Calling me out for things you did
Making me pay the price
Going 'round saying I'm a "cheat"
Throwing stones to prove yourself
Got no spine like an old book and nothing left to tell
If you don't like what I'm saying
It makes you feel disgraced
Maybe you shouldn't have said it at all in the first place?
[Chorus]
I know, I know, I know
I can't deny it
I've tried, I've tried, I've tried
I've tried to fight it
Lost in the storm
My heart hates what you've left it
Now loving you has become my Resentment
Suddenly things aren't what they seem
Truth takes on a disguise
Gave you everything
Never asked for anything
You destroyed my smile
Going 'round saying I'm a "cheat"
Throwing stones to prove yourself
Got no spine like an old book and nothing left to tell
If you don't like what I'm saying
It makes you feel disgraced
Maybe you shouldn't have said it at all in the first place?
[Chorus]
[Chorus]
Ooh, ooh
[Chorus]
My Resentment...
