A Lost Cause
All I've wanted is to let go.
I've tried so hard, it's my downfall.
Just this once, I'm on my knees,
and begging you to trust in what you see in me.
So why can't I be honest with you?
I just love the feeling of the wrong things I do.
These vices I crave demand their own way, but I need you so badly,
I beg you to stay.
It's true that you deserve more than you've asked for.
I know that you haven't forgiven me,
so I should stop being selfish and just let you leave.
All I've wanted is to let go.
I've tried so hard, it's my downfall.
Just this once, I'm on my knees,
and begging you to trust in what you see in me.
So what am I supposed to say?
I promised that I'd quit soon, but that didn't mean today.
These vices I crave demand their own way, but I need you so badly,
I beg you to stay.
While it's true that you deserve more than you've asked for,
I know that you haven't forgiven me,
so I should stop being selfish and just let you leave.
Is this what you wanted?
Is this what you need?
Caught up in the wrong things,
they're catching up with me.
Who am I supposed to be?
I tried to be perfect, but I just couldn't succeed.
These vices I crave demand their own way, but I need you so badly,
I beg you to stay.
While it's true that you deserve more than you've asked for,
I know that you haven't forgiven me,
so I should stop being selfish and just let you leave,
but you're slipping away.
I've tried so hard, it's my downfall.
Just this once, I'm on my knees,
and begging you to trust in what you see in me.
