Victim Lyrics
[Verse 1:]
I just can't sleep tonight
I know you're not alone and it don't feel right
It should be me holding your body tight
But instead you're giving him what was always mine
[ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricenter.com/e63600-claude_kelly~victim_lyrics.html ]
[Bridge:]
All the love that I put into you
And now he is getting all the benefits
I'm sittin here only thinking of you
But you don't care that my world is crumbling
[Chorus:]
I can't believe you let somebody tear this apart
I can't believe you let a stranger in your heart
You and me were supposed to last forever
But now I'm just a victim
Can't stop the suffering (victim)
Never thought I'd be (victim)
I'm only a victim since you've been gone
I'm down on my knees (victim)
Can only be (victim)
I'm only a victim since you've been gone
[Verse 2:]
Tell me how he took your hand and swept ya (off your feet)
I play it over and over in my head
Don't know what he's doing better (better than me)
Is there something that I just don't get?
[Bridge:]
All the love that I put into you
And now he is getting all the benefits
I'm sittin here only thinking of you
But you don't care that my world is crumbling
[Chorus:]
I can't believe you let somebody tear this apart
I can't believe you let a stranger in your heart
You and me were supposed to last forever
But now I'm just a victim
Can't stop this suffering (victim)
Never thought I'd be (victim)
I'm only a victim since you've been gone
I'm down on my knees (victim)
Can only be (victim)
I'm only a victim since you've been gone
[Verse 3:]
I can't live knowing he holds you
When you're doin' things to him that I showed you
Now I'm here with you stuck in my system
Wishing you will come to so I won't be your victim
[Chorus:]
I can't believe you let somebody tear this apart
I can't believe you let a stranger in your heart
You and me were supposed to last forever
But now I'm just a victim
Can't stop the suffering (victim)
Never thought I'd be (victim)
I'm only a victim since you've been gone
I'm down on my knees (victim)
Can only be (victim)
I'm only a victim since you've been gone
A victim since you've been gone
Victim since you've been gone
