The Offspring - Self Esteem

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
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 keep it up
I just might tell her so
When she's saying that
she wants only me
Then I wonder why she sleeps
with my friends
When she's saying 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
Now I'll relate this little bit
That happens more than
I'd like to admit
Late at night she knocks on my door
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
When she's saying that
she wants only me
Then I wonder why she sleeps
with my friends
When she's saying 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
