And we've been here for so many years,
Still it seems as if you're not there,
(Are you there),
Everytime I talk you turn away,
(Do you care),
Isn't dad an obligation to care,

And we've been here for so many years,
So many years still it seems,
So complicated,
Overrated,
Complicated this feeling is love,

Well I came in the door,
I said it before,
I never let the stress get,
Me down no more,
Giving thanks to the lord,
And I pray everyday,
Giving shots to my peeps and this is what we said,

And we've been here for so many years,
So many years still it seems,
So complicated,
Overrated,
Complicated this feeling is love,

You left us one little room with a black and white TV,
One eviction notice and a bill for therapy,
You're living all alone you're like a dog with out a bone,
You're living all alone 'cause you left us all at home,
Well you had a second chance but you threw it all away,
A fourth and fifth and sixth but that was yesterday,
Now you're sitting at a bar just drowning in your tears,
Lonely in the corner while everybody cheers,

And we've been here for so many years,
So many years still it seems,
So complicated,
Overrated,
Complicated this feeling is love,

Six dollars in your pocket one's a secret stash,
Three's for alcohol and two's for cigarettes
