Lose

Where were you when I broke the skin? Or when you told me you weren't with him? I never knew and I never will You just tell me the things that I want to hear So there’s an ocean of lies, it lies between you and I And we walk all upon it like Jesus Christ And I've said before so I'll say it again The more you cross me the less I forgive you How do you find that you could simplify A quarrel by which was dealt with silence With nothing more but keeping quiet? Never did quite get that logic So again and again, there a benevolent limb Left hanging out in the cold without a hand there to hold And its the circle were in, can’t find a way to admit when we're wrong Now don't you go on telling anybody anything You're gonna lose End up holdin' on to all it was that you lost I've never done the things I now have done Before to myself or to somebody else I guess that's just how it goes when you're young and you grow With someone with you to push and to pull Why you always run when the run gets rough? Sometimes you just gotta go, yeah you just gotta go, I know And maybe it all just feels a little too close But baby don’t you forget what you love the most Now don’t you go on telling anybody anything You're gonna lose End up holdin’ on to all it was that you lost You left me hanging, left me hanging on a memory One of you Can't help but to think I'm not the only one Never really mattered anyway Spent all my time, hoping everything would work out right Really was for nothing at all seeing it all now As you take your place in the past You walk over wet cement Now I'm stuck retracing the steps you took to forget Don’t you go on telling anybody anything You're gonna lose Ended up losing you
