Have you been cheated,
have you been used?
Were you taken for granted?
Did you like the abuse?
Did you get yourself worked up,
about the money you make?
It just goes to show..
You get what you take.
Is Daddy a hustler?
Is your mom a whore?
Did they go and get busted?
Were you holdin' for more?
And the hand that they dealt you
was nothing at all,
but you placed your bet,
and you never played small.
Yea I fell in love
and I fell outta love.
I had some money, I spent all of it.
I'd give it all back,
to just let you go.
Did you fall in love?
Was the timing all wrong?
Are you stuck in a prison,
of shadows grown long?
And you put all your best words,
in the worst song.
And you can't bear to sing it,
when they won't sing along.
Now I had what I had
and I lost what I lost.
I'd buy it all back, but I'd buy it for cost.
But everybody knows, It'd never sell out.
And some stay for money
and some just for fun.
Maybe you got stuck with your time on the run.
You can hold your pillow close,
'cause those days are done.
You may not know what you are,
but you know what you've done.
And now you're back out on the road,
having fun.
