Losing Battle   Year: 2005 | Run Time: 3:32

Written by Bill Mallonee for CyBrenJoJosh (BMI) ©2005

ponder straight edged for a while
ruminations and consequences
outtakes and mending fences the errors of your ways
a little courageous moment
it's a plot of land and you could have owned it
where everything awaits the light of day

you can't outrun the black clouds
when you've allowed more than is allowed
the spirit leaves before the death rattle
losing battle

who knows where it all went
before you earned it it was all spent
and spending and getting and losing is all there is
left to your own devices
a few white lies and some compromises
you tell yourself but it's not sinking in

who knows where this all will go
with those thousand fools you call your heroes
expectations crossbars too high to reach
one two three here we go
is it a high-wire act or boondoggle side show
and there was no safety net underneath

Appeared On…
