THE ART OF LOSING EVERYTHING Lyrics

I lace my shoes just to run away

I learned these moves dancing 'round the pain

Cause I heard

If you ignore it, it goes away

God, it's so boring being sad again

And it hurts

When they say it gets better with time

Well that's fine

But time ain't quite on my side

So if I asked for a sign, would it have 8 sides

And be red, with just four letters in white

Stop

Tried and true

If there's a way to fuck it up, you know for sure I'll find it

Wish I knew

A way to trade in my dumb luck for just some peace of mind, and

I face my fears just to let them win

Wait by the door just to let them in

Well, hello

I greet the darkness as my old friend

A broken heart that don't wanna mend

I tell those

When they say it gets better with time

Well that's fine

But time ain't been a friend in this life

So if I asked for a sign, would it have 8 sides

And be red, with just four letters in white

Stop

Tried and true

If there's a way to fuck it up, you know for sure I'll find it

Wish I knew

A way to trade in my dumb luck for just some peace of mind, and

Born to lose

I'll find a way to fuck it up, ignore the ways around it

Forced to choose

I'd do it all over again, leave it the way I found it

I chase these ghosts I've know all my days

My oldest friends, and my enemies

And I know

I keep them close cause they know my pain

What breaks me makes me feel whole again
