how the hell do I deserve this
it only makes sense to you
where’s the magic of our first kiss
been beaten black and blue
do we lie in hibernation
in this cave we call home
do we pray for resurrection
or push away the stone
 

if it’s important to me
should be important to yo
if you don’t want me to leave
then it better show soon
it’s important you see
I do much more for you
than you ever do me
you better change your tune
 

once we bathed in fascination
over our different ways
we could lie in bed for hours
and we could talk for days
now you seek out altercations
over nothing at all
while I’m at the plate and swingin
and you’re just droppin the ball
 

if it’s important to me
should be important to you
if you don’t want me to leave
then it better show
it’s important you see
I do much more for you
than you ever do me
you better change your tune
 

give me a reason and I’ll give it one more try
cause baby freedom’s always on the other side
I’m so damn tired but have the will to stay awake
if you can show that you can give back what you take
 

if it’s important to me
should be important to you
if you don’t want me to leave
then it better show soon
darlin it’s important you see
I do much more for you
than you ever do me
you better change your tune
