The Shortchange

I bought your love, but you're giving me the shortchange

Yeah, I want a heavy head and pockets soul drained

Oh, couldn't you spend a little more for me

Cause I don't wanna work for free

With nothing in return (nothing in return)

Use me up when I couldn't tie our love up

Pull my sleeve when I'm giving you the cold shoulder

Because I'm always tug between

Out that door and at your feet

Oh, will I ever learn? (will I ever learn?)

So you can paint me anyway you like

I can be for filling, if it helps you sleep at night

Because you lift me with a bruise

And I'm over being used

When I get to someone new

I'm not gonna be broke from you

You were so quick to find all my weakness

All my wrongs, like I needed your forgiveness

But you know that I gave all I had

And then some after that

You bled me dry, catch me aside

Said bye for the night

So you can paint me anyway you like

I can be for filling, if it helps you sleep at night

Because you lift me with a bruise

And I'm over being used

When I get to someone new

I'm not gonna be broke from you

You're giving me the shortchange

I'm cashing in, I'm walking out

Cause you don't get to keep me here and knock me out

You're giving me the shortchange

And you got scared, I get it

But you didn't say you loved me when it mattered

You're giving me the shortchange

I'm cashing in, I'm walking out

Cause you don't get to keep me here and knock me out

You're giving me the shortchange

And you got scared, I get it

But you didn't say you loved me when it mattered

You're giving me the shortchange

You're giving me the shortchange

You're giving me the shortchange

You're giving me the shortchange

You're giving me the shortchange
