Resentment

I wish I could believe you, then I'll be alright

But now everything you told me really don't apply

To the way I feel inside

Lovin' you was easy once upon a time

But now, my suspicions of you have multiplied

And it's all, because you lied

I only give you a hard time

'Cause I can't go on and pretend like

I haven't tried to forget this

But I'm much too full of resentment

Just can't seem to get over the way you hurt me

Don't know how you gave another who didn't mean a thing (mean a thing), no

The very thing you gave to me

I thought I could forgive you, and I know you've changed

As much as I wanna trust you, I know it ain't the same (it ain't the same)

And it's all because you lied

I only give you a hard time (hard time)

'Cause I can't go on and pretend like

I haven't tried to forget this (forget this)

But I'm much too full of resentment (I'm much too full of resentment)

I may never understand why (why)

I'm doing the best that I can and I

I tried, and I tried to forget this (forget this)

But I'm much too full of resentment (you lied)

I'll always remember feeling (you lied)

Like I was no good (you lied)

Like I couldn't do it for you (you lied)

Like your mistress could

And it's all because you lied

Loved you more than ever (you lied)

More than my own life (you lied)

The best part of me, I gave you (you lied)

It was sacrificed (sacrifice)

And it's all, because you lied

I only give you a hard time

'Cause I can't go on and pretend like (I can't go on and pretend like)

I tried, and I tried to forget this (I tried, and I tried, and I tried)

But I'm too damn full of resentment

I know she was attractive, but I was here first

Been riding with you for six years

Why did I deserve to be treated this way by you-you?

I know you probably thinking, "What's up with Bey?"

I've been crying for too long, what did you do to me?

I used to be so strong, but now you took my soul

I'm crying, can't stop crying, can't stop crying

You could've told me you wasn't happy

I know you didn't wanna hurt me

But look what you done done to me now

I gotta look at her in her eyes (you lied)

And see she's had half of me (you lied)

How could you lie? (You lied)
