Here We Go Again

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
Cause 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

I reach out to touch the flame
Cause 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

You could be
The greatest chance I’ll never take
You’ll always be
My worst and favorite mistake...

I reach out to touch the flame
Cause 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

And here I go
Again
