1 step forward, 3 steps back

Called you on the phone today Just to ask you how you were All I did was speak normally Somehow, I still struck a nerve You got me fucked up in the head, boy Never doubted myself so much Like, am I pretty? Am I fun, boy? I hate that I give you power over that kind of stuff 'Cause it's always one step forward and three steps back I'm the love of your life until I make you mad It's always one step forward and three steps back Do you love me, want me, hate me? Boy, I don't understand No, I don't understand And maybe, in some masochistic way I kinda find it all exciting Like, which lover will I get today? Will you walk me to the door or send me home crying? It's one step forward and three steps back I'm the love of your life until I make you mad It's always one step forward and three steps back Do you love me, want me, hate me? Boy, I don't understand No, it's back and forth, did I say something wrong? It's back and forth, going over everything I said It's back and forth, did I do something wrong? It's back and forth, maybe this is all your fault instead It's one step forward and three steps back And I'd leave you, but the rollercoaster's all I've ever had Yeah, it's one step forward and three steps back Do you love me, want me, hate me? Boy, I don't understand No, I don't understand
