learning to lose
[Intro: Decks]
Something was stolen
Something I borrowed
Must've been open
Must've been hollow
And open progression
Is nothing but awful
I trample my thoughts
Till they're tougher to swallow
[Chorus: Decks]
It's passion that kills you
The nerves gonna drive you insane
I can't stand to look back
When the only thing there is your name
I took this as a loss
When I should've been counting the days
It's a wish on a star
You're the one thing that's keeping me sane
I'm losing this game
When you're learning to lose
Well, the world isn't spinning the same
[Verse: greenwood]
I put some distance out into thе worlds
And I never trip about the way that it hurts
And I think thеy buried me deep in the dirt
But trust me, and trust me it still could get worse
Seventeen years in a hospital bed
And they treat me different, I know what it is
And it'd take a year to explain what it did
When I got a phantom inside of my limbs
Closed down, held over
And I found the worst way to tell you
And I couldn't leave, but I'd let you
And tell me you think I'll be dead soon
Held down, I'm closer
And I found the best way to end it
And I didn't sleep just pretended
And fucked up my life like your friends said
[Chorus: Decks]
It's passion that kills you
The nerves gonna drive you insane
(Can't take back what I said
I'm the one you can blame)
I can't stand to look back
When the only thing there is your name
(Not the man in your heart
He had went with the pain)
I took this as a loss
When I should've been counting the days
(It's a pattern I keep
Wish I'd throw it away)
It's a wish on a star
You're the one thing that's keeping me sane
(I know it's too late)
I'm losing this game
When you're learning to lose
Well, the world isn't spinning the same
