heideroosjes - thank you (for messing me up) lyrics

here i'm standing, yes, i'm crying
oh my god i feel like dying
i am not a tough guy anymore

i would never know, what i know now
if you didn't break our vow
and yes, of course, it hurts like hell

although you messed me up really bad
and took every bit of pride i had
i wanna thank you for doing that
although you messed me up, made me mad
took every bit of sense i had
i wanna thank you for doing that

here i'm standing, yes i'm fighting
some things can't be caught in writing
a new chapter in my book of life

whatever might, whatever should
have i not done all that i could?
but my best wasn't good enough for you

although you messed me up really bad
and took every bit of pride i had
i wanna thank you for doing that
although you messed me up, made me mad
took every bit of sense i had
i wanna thank you for doing that

all that hurts me, makes me stronger
all that hurts me, makes me more complete
all that hurts me. makes me stronger
