Losing is not coming second. It's getting out of the water knowing you could have done better.


So Ive come to a realization that Ive known all along
Im sick of being sick to my stomach listening to sad songs
Why am I still worrying about you? Why do I care?
Whenever I was hurting, you were never there.
You never cared enough to see my hurt or pain,
You said you were trying to help, but only so youd have someone to blame.
We never could talk to each other, we didnt care enough to speak,
But why is it that when I see you, my knees still go weak?
My body still aches for you, and you never leave my mind,
My heart melts at the sight of you, and to the rest of the world Im blind.
Oh darling, baby, why did you leave?
Ill strike my wrist and hide it with my sleeve
If it meant youd come back to me....

But is that really what I want? Do I want that pain again?
Or can I sit and suffer, dealing with the end?
I dont know what it is that has me running back,
Its as if my life were a puzzle, and youre the piece that I lack.
But why? I still dont understand,
Why does she get the chance to hold my whole world in her hands?
But its none of my business, so Ill leave you two be,
If only I was strong enough, maybe I could see
The reasoning for the end, why it happened, and why I still care...

But pressing on, pressing on, no time to be sad,
Reflecting on the past, on things I once had.
Enough is enough, Im sick of this game -
forever Ive been trying to decide whos to blame
But its done, shut the door, hit the lights, close the case,
I need to find a replacment for my missing piece - one that can take your place.
