What’s It All For

Head in my hands again
My world is caving in
You got me hands up, I surrender
Might as well throw the fight
Try as I might I've lost the will to win
Feel like I'm going under
I know too well, I can always tell
There's that look in your eyes before you shoot me down

Why do I have to be on the floor?
For you to believe in yourself you'll be sure
To fall on your face again
That'll hurt you more, that'll hurt you more
Hanging by my fingernails I try
Letting the worst of your rage pass me by
Only to start again
What's it all for? What's it all for?
What's it all for?

Is this a game you're playing?
Hoping I'll heal again
Before the sky brings the thunder and rain
And I can't say it could be today
It's so strange the way it always comes around

Why do I have to be on the floor?
For you to believe in yourself you'll be sure
To fall on your face again
That'll hurt you more, that'll hurt you more
Hanging by my fingernails I try
Letting the worst of your rage pass me by
Only to start again
What's it all for? What's it all for?
What's it all for?

What's the reason I keep coming back for more?
Say the word and I'll shut the door
What's it all for?
