Self Esteem

The Offspring

9

I wrote her off for the tenth time today

And practiced all the things I would say

But she came over

I lost my nerve

I took her back and made her dessert

Now I know I'm being used

That's okay man cause I like the abuse

I know she's playing with me

That's okay cause I've got no self esteem

oh yeah, yeah, yeah

We make plans to go out at night

I wait till 2 then I turn out the light

All this rejection's got me so low

If she keeps it up I just might tell her so

When she's saying all that she wants only me

Then I wonder why she sleeps with my friends

When she's saying all that I'm like a disease

Then I wonder how much more I can spend

Well I guess I should stick up for myself

But I really think it's better this way

The more you suffer

The more it shows you really care; Right? Yeah!

Now I'll relate this little bit

That happens more than I'd like to admit

Late at night she knocks on my door

She's Drunk again and looking to score

Now I know I should say no

But that's kind of hard when she's ready to go

I may be dumb but I'm not a dweeb

I'm just a sucker with no self esteem

oh yeah, yeah, yeah

When she's saying all that she wants only me

Then I wonder why she sleeps with my friends

When she's saying all that I'm like a disease

Then I wonder how much more I can spend

Well I guess I should stick up for myself

But I really think it's better this way

The more you suffer

The more it shows you really care; Right? Yeah!
