Can't do right for doing wrong
Because I could never possibly be right
And I'm always the one to give in
Just to avoid yet another fight

Why can't things just be simple,
Why do you have to make it all so hard?
I can't be myself around you now
I'm on edge; I've put up my guard

You want to know why I'm always down
Don't you understand that the way you treat me
Wears me down to nothingness?
This is just far more complicated than it should be.
