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
