Betrayed

Did you ever feel betrayed by someone in your life?

Did you ever give your trust and have it sold?

For the sake of cheap expedience I now experience

feeling betrayed by you

I woke at five this morning with you on my mind

replaying conversations in my head

You said if you'd to choose between some money and a friend

you'd always choose the friend

So how come you could change your mind so easily?

How was it so speedily arranged?

You struck an easy bargain when persuaded it was not

and now it's all you've got

And still you need to justify yourself

to others but not me

with that more-in-sorrow-than-anger routine

Sometimes I think I'm going mad

when I hear you've said 'It's sad

He feels hard done by me'

Did you ever give a thought for someone else's pride?

Your actions prove that actually you did

and threw it out the door as opportunity came through

I'd been betrayed by you

And still you need to justify yourself

to others but not me

with that more-in-sorrow-than-anger routine

Sometimes I think I'm going mad

when I hear you've said 'it's sad

he feels hard done by me'

Did you ever feel betrayed by someone in your life?

Did you ever give your trust and have it sold?

For the sake of cheap expedience I now experience

being betrayed by you

That's all you had to do

to make me feel betrayed by you
