You Can't Win

Banners flying
 Only to obscure my pathetic starring
 At the gate again
 I tossed the keys into the river
 Lest you find the world unwilling
 Can't you see how I am killing
 Off the good limbs
 And I'm forcing you to race three-legged
 You can't win
 You can't win
 You can't win
 Put my hand up to the boat
 Took with you but not the light
 I shook it off, I'm glad it's
 Dark except the light behind your name
 Eventually the right things
 Stay with you, they are said lightly
 Not burned or scratched
 Into your memory
 You can't win
 You can't win
 You can't win
