How I'll Lose You Lyrics

I don't wanna be, I don't wanna be a secret

That you keep in the dark

I don't wanna be, I don't wanna be the reason

You break her heart

I'm not gonna go pick up the phone

I know you're just drunk and all alone

This is what you do when she isn't home

I won't risk it all cause

I know how I'll lose you

Oh, I know your game

I'll be what you're used to

Then you'll run away

I know that you'll make all the same old mistakes

And you won't take the blame in the morning

I know how I'll lose you

I'd lose you this way

So I don't want you in the first place

You'll swear you love me

And I'll believe it for a minute

Then suddenly, I'll be the one coming in second

I'll give and you take all of my good intentions

Your one-night mistake will be my six-month depression

I'm not gonna go pick up the phone

Don't need to live through what I already know

I'm not gonna let you win me over

Cause I already know

I know how I'll lose you

Oh, I know your game

I'll be what you're used to

Then you'll just run away

So I know that you'll make the same old mistakes

And you won't take the blame in the morning

I know how I'll lose you

I'd lose you this way

I know too much, it doesn't

Sometimes I wish I wasn't

Just someone you were fucking

Over and over again

I act like I'm indifferent

Sometimes I wish I didn't

Why can't I be the one you're choosing

The truth is

I don't wanna lose you

So I'll play your game

It's just what I'm used to

It's the only way

I'll get you alone

If just for a moment

Know you won't be mine in the morning

I don't wanna lose you

So I guess I'll stay

But I never had you in the first place
