I just wanted to let you know
Just how beautiful you are on the out side
'Cause inside you're cold and gray
Like Ohio in February
I don't know what made you this way
But you suck the life right out of me
I gave you everything
You threw it all back in my face
It's hard enough to keep my head above the water
Without you trying to pull me down
Why is it that you always have to be the cement on my feet
When I'm trying to swim
Yeah, yeah!
But I got my strength
And my will to carry on
Is the only thing keeping me from sinking
I just wanted to let you know
Just how beautiful you are on the out side
'Cause inside you're cold and gray
Like Ohio in February
I don't know what made you this way
But you suck the life right out of me
I gave you everything
You threw it all back in my face
It's bad enough that nothing ever goes right
When I'm doing everything I can
To make things work
But there you are sunshine into rain
Turning positivity to pain
But I got my strength
And my will to carry on
Is the only thing keeping me from sinking
I just wanted to let you know
Just how beautiful you are on the out side
'Cause inside you're cold and gray
Like Ohio in February
I don't know what made you this way
But you suck the life right out of me
I gave you everything
You threw it all back in my face
We don't need you around anymore
We don't need you around
We don't need you around anymore
But I got my strength
And my will to carry on
Is the only thing keeping me from sinking
I just wanted to let you know
Just how beautiful you are on the out side
'Cause inside you're cold and gray
Like Ohio in February
I don't know what made you this way
But you suck the life right out of me
I gave you everything
You threw it all back in my face
