You made me feel
That I was unwanted
Then you moved on
Like you were undaunted
I wanna know
How come you weren’t haunted
By the thought of me
Running through the gauntlet

You made me feel
As if you didn’t care
About our relationship
Like you weren’t aware
Something was wrong
That was causing despair
And I’m being honest
With what I have to share

You made me feel
Alone and rejected
In the sense that I
Was feeling neglected
In ways, you probably
Never suspected
You made me become
Totally disaffected

You made me feel
That I didn’t deserve
The love that I wanted
That you held in reserve
Like a commodity
You had to conserve
Until that empty feeling
Touched a raw nerve
