Do you remember
How I dug you out
Of that deep and dark hole
That was your life

Do you recall
How I pulled you out
Of despondency and despair
Made your life worth the living

I treated you like the queen
That I took you to be
And all you did
Was make a fool out of me

I made you better
Happier and stronger
I had only the best intentions
But you were clearly using me

I gave every thing I had
Exhausted every effort
And all I got in return
Was you ignoring and forgetting

I didn't even get a thank you
Even though I saved you
Do you even care
I wish I would've just left you there
To suffer more on your own
But I guess we'll always know
Who the better person is
