Story Behind The Song
My car broke down and no matter how much time and $$ I spent on that thing, it always let me down. So glad when I got rid of it.
Song Description
Even though the singer dumps the guy, he's the one who really ended the relationship emotionall, long before the physical break-up. Won't even think twice about making up with someone who is so clearly not working out.

Lyrics
Spare me all your tales of woe
You brought this on yourself, you know
Well, I'm not gonna take you back
I'd rather spend my nights alone.
You could have tried a little harder, stayed a little longer, loved a little better, been a little stronger, but...
CHORUS:
You gave up on me
And all I ever did to you was give you everything
I gave you all you needed - baby, can't you see that
the only thing you gave was up on me.
Things could never be the same
You didn't care to save what you threw away.
Well I'm not gonna take a chance
and have you do that to me again
I couldn't try and harder, stay any longer, love any better, be any stronger, 'cause
(chorus)
BRIDGE:
No matter what the problem was, it wasn't worth your time
You never felt like talkin' 'bout the troubles on my mind
You didn't even try, no 'cause
(chorus)
