I gave you all that you want
More than you deserve
I gave it all at my own expense
And still I feel like nothing has changed

You give the least to be polite, and nothing more.
You know that's all you must give
And because of my desperation
I accept it.

And still I give even more
In the hopes that you'll answer me with the same intentions.

I gave selflessly, to the point of agony
And it leaves me empty inside
And I am left cold
Until I gain the strength somewhere.

I dread the day when the strength does not return
And I know it will come sooner than I expect.
