Nothing
It wasn’t enough for you to hurt me
It wasn’t enough to make me cry
It wasn’t enough that you made me feel so bad
That I wanted to curl up and die
It wasn’t enough to take away my peace of mind
It wasn’t enough to disturb my ordered life
It wasn’t enough to say cruel and heartless things
That cut into me like a knife
It wasn’t enough for you to take my love
It wasn’t enough for you to throw it in my face
It wasn’t enough for you to laugh at me
And drive me from this place
Nothing was ever enough for you
I gave it all, yet you wanted more
Nothing was ever quite right for you
What did I get involved with you for?
Nothing you did was about the two of us
Nothing you did was about sharing
Nothing I have learnt about you
Suggests you are capable of caring.
I have nothing left to offer you
I have nothing left to give
I want nothing more to do with you
For as long as long as I shall live
