Half The Cost

I used to call you baby 
But never to your face 
I used to chase you round and round 
But only at my pace 

I used to say I love you 
To your picture in a frame 
I used to tell the world about you 
Leaving out your name 

And I guess I could have fought for you 
Bashing down your walls 
Convince you that you needed me 
Walking dead end halls 
But what's the point, you know 
Because I always would have lost 
I'm lucky, I got a broken heart 
For only half the cost 

I used to bring you splendors 
Hidden in my palm 
You used to make me crazy 
Though I outwardly seemed calm 

I used to think you'd change 
You just needed to pretend 
I used to think you loved me 
But you weren't even my friend
