lyrics

LOST IT AGAIN
Thought we were past this
But it’s coming back on me now
Can I be the best version of myself when you’re around?

So ask me your questions
But know there’s no guarantee I’ll respond
With these fragments of past hurt
Still hanging around with me
And I can’t move on

So tell me is it real now?
Or is it just pretend?
And I can’t believe I lost it again

Not sure what I was clinging to
Some false remedy
Some great bluff
That you and me could be good to each other
If we just tried hard enough

I really fooled myself this time
Thinking we’d worked it out for the best
Is it wrong to even bother?
When I can’t keep my bad thoughts in check

So pack up all your presents
And spend the night at your friend’s
Cuz I can’t believe I lost it again

And the radio was playing that song
You know the one you said I always sang wrong
