Let me tell you about my divorce. Left me destitute with no remorse. Thought it was a match made in heaven But how could it be when it was forced? Three months living in a blissful hell There was no way we could tell. My wife left me, abandoned me In our apartment by myself. She said she didn’t love me anymore As she walked out the door She filed for our divorce Using $200 I had saved up, of course. It seemed like she unraveled my universe And as if things couldn’t get any worse She was pregnant with my daughter And tried to keep me away from her. It seemed like every day I was cryin’. I didn’t even care if I was dyin’. Pain was so bad it’s like my heart was ripped out of my chest by a lion. Yah, and it’s like...
I just got tired of carin’ And I just kept starin’ At my hands and my feet ‘Cause I got nothing in between I am jaded I am jaded
