giver

i would do anything for you
and that's the problem
no matter what you do to me 
i will keep giving and giving 
as if giving enough will make you love me
even if you already have all you need
you'd take anything i put in front of you 
if you needed to borrow something,
i'd just give it to you
if you needed to buy something, 
i'd just buy it for you
if you wanted something,
i'd already have it ready to give  you
yet you won't give anything back
sometimes i feel 
it's almost as if
i took out my heart for you to use
but yours was already fine
you just wanted to take mine
