Lyrics

I’ve felt like this so long

I have been feeling this way for a considerable period.

It’s hardly strange to me

It's not unusual or surprising for me to feel this way.

You tell me that i’m broke

You inform me that I'm emotionally damaged.

I think that I might be

I suspect that I might be emotionally broken.

I don’t really know

I am uncertain about the emotional resources I have remaining.

How much i’ve got left

I don't know how much emotional strength I still possess.

As people come and go

People enter and exit my life, taking everything they can.

They take all they can get

Others exploit me, taking advantage of what they can get.

I should’ve told you from the start

I should have made it clear from the beginning that you had my time but not my heart.

You had my time, but not my heart

My time was available to you, but my heart was not.

I’ve got no more love to give

I no longer have love to give.

Someone left with the last of it

Someone took the last of my love and left.

So if you plan on fixing me

If you intend to help me, do it thoroughly.

Then fix me completely

If you plan to fix me, do it completely.

You know I won’t believe

I won't believe what you're about to say.

What you’re about to say

I've heard similar promises before, but they don't last.

I’ve heard the words before

Words are spoken, but the emotions don't endure.

The feeling doesn’t stay

The emotions associated with the words fade away.

And if you needed me

If you needed me, I would likely disappoint you.

I’d probably let you down

It's not fair for you to stay around when I can't fulfill your needs.

I know it isn’t fair

I acknowledge that it's unfair for you to remain in this situation.

For you to stick around

You should not stick around because I cannot reciprocate fully.

I should’ve told you from the start

I should have clarified from the beginning that you had my time but not my heart.

You had my time, but not my heart

My time was at your disposal, but my heart was not.

I’ve got no more love to give

I no longer have love to give.

Someone left with the last of it

Someone took the last of my love and left.

So if you plan on fixing me

If you intend to help me, do it thoroughly.

Then fix me completely

If you plan to fix me, do it completely.

You’ll never really know how much it takes

You will never understand the emotional toll it takes.

To push and bend your heart until it breaks

To push and strain your heart until it breaks is a challenging experience.

Why would you, how could you

Why and how could you put yourself through this?

I tried so many times it wouldn’t take

I attempted many times, but it didn't work.

Who could love a fool with my mistakes

Who could love someone with my mistakes?

Why would you, how could you

Why and how could you love someone with my flaws?

I’ve got no more love to give

I no longer have love to give.

(I’ve got no more love)

(Repetition) I have no more love to give.

Someone left with the last of it

Someone took the last of my love and left.

(Got nothin’ I can give)

(Repetition) I have nothing left to give.

So if you plan on fixing me

If you intend to help me, do it thoroughly.

(If you plan on fixing me)

(Repetition) If you plan to fix me, do it completely.

Then fix me completely

If you plan to fix me, do it thoroughly and without reservation.
