Losing Kind

The sad-eyed smiles and open wounds Bled the night until it touched noon And watched as the diamonds turned to coal And waited for love to take its toll The lake was a sea of tears And quietly falling fears That the night was the enemy When in fact it was the day that needed reckoning This might a waste of time Shouting at the sky tonight This might be a waste of time 'Cause we're the losing kind Close your eyes, wipe the slate clean Give yourself somewhere to hang your dreams Faith is our favorite little lie Because we give it water and get back wine This might be a waste of time Shouting at the sky tonight This might be a waste of time 'Cause we're the losing kind
