Shit End of the Stick

If I gave you all you wanted, if I gave you all you need
If I gave you everything I had would you still have shafted me
‘Cause my veins are pumping with anger
I’ve been cut but show no blood
I store it away ‘til it eats me inside
Like some kind of parasite
Well the secret you kept so easy
Had to make sure the cage door was locked
It ain’t easy to sleep in the bed that you made
Pushing nails inside my back
Take it away now – I’m pushing my way through the shit
Take it away ‘cause I gotta get through it
Get me the hell outta this
Things ain’t easy trying to win with the cards they’re dealing
Cards they’re dealing me
Empty feeling trying to cope with the pain
Still I can feel it, feel it, feel it
Lead
How does it feel it to be wounded
How does it feel to be down
How do you like being buried in the shit you’re always pushing around
Take it away now – I’m taking my life in my hands
Take it away ‘cause I gotta get through it
Something you don’t understand, no
Things ain’t easy trying to win with the cards they’re dealing
Cards you’ve been dealing me
Empty feeling trying to beat out the odds
Don’t give me the shit end of the stick
I said you gave me the shit end of the stick
Oh life gave me the shit end of the stick
