I Can't Win

Scented candle smelling like cinnamon
Twisting my words like it's a synonym
Still having dreams about the lovely picnics we'd take
And I wake up and I'm upset that I'm not living it
I don't need nobody else to care for me
But we used to be each others' therapy
Lately I been looking in the mirror in the bathroom
And the face that's staring back at me is scaring me

I can't
Get you outta my head
Too late
Forget whatever I said

I can't
Get you outta my head
Too late
Forget whatever

I'm sorry to hear that you're hurtin
You don't have it easy, for certain
The person that carries my burdens
And carries away
I'm just searching for my greater purpose
I can't be with you tomorrow
The thought will be with me tomorrow
Looking at photographs now
I can't sleep when I'm down
Without peace I can't look past the sorrow

And I can't win
And I can't win

And I still feel the tension all up in my shoulders
Couldn't give you my attention cuz I'm getting older
You were sitting in my palm just like a Motorola
Thought that I could handle
Now I'm dealing with a taller order
Tryna make sense what never made sense
Had to part ways and gave a fuck since
You believed in me before I made a buck ten
Now I'm sitting thinking all alone up on a park bench

I can't
Get you outta my head
Too late
Forget whatever I said

I can't
Get you outta my head
Too late
Forget whatever

Better me than you
I got no attitude
I cannot give to you
Whatever promises I promised you
"I'm mad at you"
"I'm mad at you"
I'm doing what I had to do
A month ago, a year ago
I'm tryna get my gratitude up
Your friends been gassin you up
Took you on a roller coaster, didn't fasten you up
Knowing damn well that I'd be passing you up
I can't believe I'm fucking passing you up
And still I can't win

And I can't win
