  • I feel loved, darlin' I feel used
    Nobody makes me feel the way you do
    And sometimes I, sometimes I, sometimes
    I just can't stand it
    Isn't that just the thing about us?
    I'm still thinking you could be the one
    But you're always, you're always, you're always
    Taking me for granted

    I got something I gotta get off of my chest
    I've been staying up while you're sleeping in my bed

    I don't hate you babe, it's worse than that
    'Cause you hurt me and I don't react
    I've building up this thing for months
    Oh-oh-oh-oh, resentment

    I know you better than you know yourself
    And there's a part of you that you won't help
    You say you can do it, just do it, just do it for my sake
    It's a shame knowing we could be good
    That you could treat me better if you really wanted to
    And if you can't do it for my sake, then do it for our sake

    I don't hate you babe, it's worse than that
    'Cause you hurt me and I don't react
    I've building up this thing for months
    Oh-oh-oh-oh, resentment

    Don't know how to leave or how to stay
    So I've been talking to strangers
    'Cause I can't talk to you anymore that way
    Did I let you down? 'Cause you let me down
    But you would never say that I let you down
    But you let me down, you let me down

    But I don't hate you babe, it's worse than that
    'Cause you hurt me and I'm more than sad
    I've building up this thing for months
    Oh-oh-oh-oh, resentment Writer/s: Jamie Floyd, Kesha Sebert, Madi Diaz, Stephen Wrabel
