Here We Go Again - Beth Crowley

Here we go again

Our game of tug-o-war

For me it's real now

I'm not playing anymore

You try to wear me down

With your pretty pretty words

Just when I think I'm done

I'm halfway out the door

You pull me in again

Promising to give me more

Yet I'm still surprised every time that I get hurt

I reach out to touch the flame

Cuz I refuse to think it burns

Retreat and lick my wounds

But of course I never learn

You're a rocket to the moon

I'm stranded on the ground

Come back for what you lost

Let me show you, show you what I found

Here we go again

I lose myself in you

Your love defines me

In a way I didn't want it to

If I keep holding on

You're going to bend me til I break

I'm coming face to face

With what I've always known

That I am terrified

Of who I am when I'm alone

But now it's time to choose

Which one of us I'm going to save

You could be

The greatest chance I'll never take

You'll always be

My worst and favorite mistake
