Tell Me I'm A Wreck by Every Avenue
I could've been easier on you
I could've been all you (1)________ onto
I know I wasn't fair, I tried my best to care about you
I know I could've been a better man
But I (2)____________ had to have the upper hand
I'm struggling to see the better side of me
But I can't take all your jabs and taunts
You're pointing out my every fault
And you wonder why I (3)____________ away
When you tell me I'm a wreck
You say that I'm a mess
How (4)__________ you expect anything less?
You (5)______________ onto me then cried that I strung you along
I told you when you asked
I knew this wouldn't last
At least I could be honest about that
And now you're telling everyone
How I only did you wrong
I guess you never knew me at all
Remember on my 21st birthday
You took me where we went on our first date
We stayed till closing time, after 4 glasses of wine
You started with a pointless argument
You said that I forgot to compliment
The dress you wore that night
That I've seen a thousand times
But I think we (6)________ want different things
I want space, you want a diamond ring
Whatever made you think we were meant to be?
When you tell me I'm a wreck
You say (7)________ I'm a mess
How could you expect anything less?
You latched onto me then cried that I strung you along
I told you (8)________ you asked
I knew this wouldn't last
At least I could be honest about that
And now you're telling everyone
How I only did you wrong
I guess you never knew me at all
You tell me I'm a wreck
You say that I'm a mess

You latched onto me then cried that I strung you along
I told you (9)________ you asked
I knew this wouldn't last
At (10)__________ I could be honest about that
And now you're telling everyone
How I only did you wrong
Still I see you standing there
Waiting 'round for me to fall
Girl you must be crazy
Still believing you and me belong
I guess you never knew me at all.
