My Losing...

It's a partial deal breaker
when you're thinking of me
and I'd be sitting all alone
if they only would leave
but it's a hard excuse
and a harder truth
to keep believing...

Up till now I've known nothing
but a roof and a bed
and a body lying next to me
too proud to be led
but I just can't escape
and I will not erase
this sacred union.

Too many times I've held my hands
Clasped my fingers and said my prayers
Ask for something that I always receive
but then I turn right around and you would not believe...

It's uncertain why I do
what I do and I did
I take a couple steps forward
sleight the brains in my head
seeing differently now
and you don't know how
you still effect me.

Try as I might
I'll only couple the breaks
just a shape shifting ambulance
I tear down the drapes
and it's obvious
yes, quite obvious
I've lost the feeling.

I said that too many times I have held my hands
Scraped my knuckles on my stubbled chin
Always ask forgiveness that I always receive
Turn right around and you probably believe...
...it's a losing battle.
