Losing Battle

Why does it always end the same way? With all the tears And all the pain Every single time I fall And for what? To be lead on and to get left broken hearted Empty and useless in a losing battle I keep fighting for something For anything Just to fill that hole that tears at my heart everyday To make it whole once more Just when I start to feel alive again Is when I lose it all once more And each time is worse than the last Every time seems like it might work Maybe just this once I can have my happy ending But I think I'm done I admit defeat and walk away There's nothing left of me I've givin everything and they take it and run It's become pointless And I can't stand feeling like this anymore I just want to close my eyes now And if I can't wake up to something better Then I'd just rather not wake up at all
