the scabs - hard times

I gave you a hard time, I told you the news
There's no "I'm sorries" cause there ain't no excuse
The things I've been doin' the things that I say
The road to ruin between you and me

My reasons for cheating, I don't know what to say
Maybe it's nature, havin' it's way
You know that I love you, but that's easy to say
You'd make me proud of you if you would stay

I promised you sunshine, I promised you you'd be all mine o-oh
Instead of the good times, a killer came and took your heart away

I gave you hard times baby
I told you truth and lies
I gave you hard times baby
I told you truth and lies

I was silly believin' my lies could last
Cause sooner or later the rumour would spread
I offen wonder how the things would be
If you hadn't found out the truth about that girl and me

Can't promise you sunshine, can't promise you'll be all mine o-oh
I'll try to be honest, unlike the first time it won't slip my mind

I gave you hard times baby
I told you truth and lies
I gave you hard times baby
I told you truth and lies

I gave you hard times
I told you truth and lies

I gave you hard times
I gave you hard times
I gave you hard times
I told you truth and lies

I look out the window, I watch the street kids grow
Life was so easy when I was that old
There were no lies and no things to be told
Just lullabies and time to grow old
