In spite

We had it all when we had each other but along the way I lost you 
I know you’ve been struggling but it wore me thin too
I never wanted any of this because I just wanted us
Now we stack up our bad decisions with anger and lust

I want you to help me put this back in place
The only person to know happy on my face 
They say hurt comes from the ones you love the most we’re living up to the hype
But the love doesn’t fade in spite

We didn’t mean for this to happen but we are living it now 
Numb to the hurt we’ve suffered through I’ll stand up and take a bow
Because I can fuck up my life better than anyone can
Be left with the shattered pieces of what used to be a man

I want you to help me put this back in place
The only person to know happy on my face 
They say hurt comes from the ones you love the most we’re living up to the hype
But the love doesn’t fade in spite

I need something good for a change 
Please god I’ll do anything 
Pick me up and put me on my feet
I’ve been down but not beat

I want you to help me put this back in place
The only person to know happy on my face 
They say hurt comes from the ones you love the most we’re living up to the hype
But the love doesn’t fade in spite

I want you to help me put this back in place
The only person to know happy on my face 
They say hurt comes from the ones you love the most we’re living up to the hype
But the love doesn’t fade in spite
