Losing from Within

Last night I took a picture of you sleeping

But the flash went off and it woke you up

You looked terrified in the polaroid

So I ripped it up

After it got dark for some reason

I kept saying it was late but couldn't bring myself to leave

And when everything went quiet on the TV

Well I realized

You've already infiltrated my life

And now I'm losing from within

I should have known I'd never win

Are you the chosen one or the pretender?

Either way I just have to surrender

Surrender

I swore you said you'd call me when I landed

But it's been hours and you haven't yet

And maybe you can't figure out the timezones

Or maybe I'm just easy to forget

And I realized

You've already infiltrated my life

And now I'm losing from within

I should have known I'd never win

Are you the chosen one or the pretender?

Either way I just have to surrender

Surrender

And I've been here before

The question never changes

I always want more

So tell me who is to blame

When I'm losing from within

I should have known I'd never win

Are you the chosen one or the pretender?

Either way I just have to surrender

Surrender

Surrender
