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