Lyrics

To Lose:

Start off a hero
Wind up a fool
You chop my fingers off and I will throw them in the pool

Deal with the process
Fake control
I disciplined my mind had to let my body go

I?m sad to set it in my sights
Sad to kill off what is right
I wonder what is right

So close
Just keeping biding your time
So close
Don?t you know what it?s like
To lose

In a darkness blinding
I?m withering and writhing
Continuously striving for negotiated cool

I need another year to rest
I?ll take whatever I can get
I?ll take conditions that I know will leave me begging for the rules
I?m begging for the rules

So close
Just keeping biding your time
So close
Don?t you know what it?s like
To lose


I?m sad to set it in my sights
Sad to kill off what is right
I wonder what is right

So close
Just keeping biding your time
So close
Don?t you know what it?s like
To lose
