First Defeat

Cuts you to your bones
Knocks you off your feet
You discover that home
Is not a person or a place
But a feeling you can’t get back
Then the second round
Throws you to the floor
Leaves you stuttering
What the hell was that for?
Takes you by surprise
Like the bullet you never saw coming
This will be the last time
This will be the last time
This will be the last time
You take me
It’s the little things
That convinced me to stay
It’s your fingertips
And the music they play
To the beat of my heart
And the rhythm our bodies make
This will be the last time
Honey, this will be the last time
This will be the last time
You take me
Oh
But you’re kissing me again
Oh
And I can’t see it
You’ve got a lot of nerve
To throw me out the way you did
You’ve got a lot of nerve
Half-naked in my bed
You said
This will be the last time
This will be the last time
This will be the last time
You take me
(I take you)
