The Art Of Losing

Rise Against

I'm not fucking blind to the way

That you talk around the truth

Not just what you say

But what you do



Played this tug of war way too fucking long

Like every time

Again I've lost

You've won



You took advantage of the trust that I gave

Took my forgiveness

Rubbed it back in my face

Reaching for words but there's nothing to say

I'm left to wonder

Will this ever be the same?



This rage

Burning through my veins

Regret consumes my mind

Cutting deeply like a razor blade



Will I live to see another day

Without questioning your motives?

With constant doubt



You took advantage of the trust that I gave

Took my forgiveness

Rubbed it back in my face

Reaching for words

But there's nothing to say

I'm left to wonder

Will this ever be the same?



And as we sit back waiting

For these scars to heal

Try to convince ourselves

That this

That this isn't real



Will you allow me forget your past?

Or will you always hang it over my head?
