Songtext The mistake of caring Craig'S Brother

The mistake of caring

Without hope, drowning in misery
I couldn't help but notice you and take some sympathy
So I tried to give you a helping hand,
but somehow you wound up taking more than I had ever planned, and now it seems;

For all the messes that I made,
I was never afraid of sharing
But you took all that you could take,
I guess I made the mistake of caring

I know that I shouldn't be so surprised,
I should've seen the malice in those puppy-dog eyes
Maybe I just choose to ignore my fears,
but somehow I fell victim to your crocodile tears
and now I know...

...why your weakness seems so odd.
'Cause it's just a facade you're wearing
Of all the rules that I could break,
my biggest mistake was caring for you

And I know you too have a friend, to let you rob me of my horse again
Perhaps you don't know what you've done, still, you know a sucker when you see oneAnd I must be sucker number one

For all the messes that I made,
I was never afraid of sharing
But you took all that you could take,
I guess I made the mistake of caring for you

For you, oh,
I've been a bigger fool than I believed
Am I wearing a target on my back?
Or a sign that says "easily deceived"?
I'm looking and I recognize the truth,
I'm finding I'm better off without you
