I've been vindicated

I've been loved and hated

G                         F
Stuck up on a ladder, scared of coming down
A                    D
If I don't get what I want
A                        D
And there ain't enough to go around

In between us lies the calm before a storm that rages

Thought we were related

Couldn't be separated

I don't get what you want
G                               F
Don't know what's the matter, trying to hang around
A                  D
If I don't get what I need
G                         F
Stuck up on a ladder, scared of coming down
