Losing Streak

(album: Blue Skies, Broken Hearts... Next 12 Exits - 1999)

You only know what you've been taught.
You'll never stop til' you get caught.
You control the future and it's looking bleak.
Seems like we're headed for another losing streak.

And the fire's burning bright
And still we act like everything's all right
"I guess if we ignore it, it'll probably go away."
If you believe that bullshit please see exhibit a.

Forget about friendship, hey! Let's destroy the enemy.
Well if there's one thing that I've learned
My enemies are just as close to me.

You keep your problems deep inside.
You always play that game of run and hide.
Even though they told you to see is to believe,
It didn't take you long to know that looks they can deceive.

Don't give up fighting 'til nothing else stands in your way.
Don't give up talking until there's nothing left to say
But no matter what you do.
Don't ever compromise what you believe.
