TAKEN FOR GRANTED

Stood up
Lying there
Shut down
Denied the fruit
Watered cereal

Talked about
Crossed examined
Time out
Half a sandwich
Conversational drink

Fighting for what she can get
Giving in once the battle begins
Passion good at pretending
Taken for granted

Taken for granted
Taken for granted
Taken for granted
And loving it more

Taken for granted
Taken for granted
Taken for granted
Earned my dessert

Pushed aside
Lying there
Turned off
Denied the fruit
Watered cereal

Notes passed
Through telescopes
Daylight saving
Half a sandwich
Conversational drink

Fighting for what she can get
Giving in once the battle begins
Passion good at pretending
Taken for granted

Taken for granted
Taken for granted
Taken for granted
And loving it more

Taken for granted
Taken for granted
Taken for granted
Earned my dessert
