 I cannot tell
 Can you tell?
 Oh I can't tell
 Am I  lonely or do
 I need to be alone?
 Tonight this fight
 Between  my head and my heart
 Its getting heavy now
 So I'm just  just begging
 Just begging for a breakdown
 Sometime real soon
 Cause I don't know  what
 else is there left  to do?
It's  like we
just  can't win
 And everytime we
 get a little closer
 It all  caves in
 And I just don't know
 (hold)
 How do we know?
 How do we know when to stop?
 Baby don't stop baby don't  stop
 no  when we don't even know
 Where to begin
 You ask the questions
 but  you aren't listening
 So my heart  gets heavy
 with every letter  that I write
 I can't deny  we're losing it
 I've got no answers  tonight
 (Repeat Chorus 1)
D-A-E-- x2
 Oh It's  like we just  can't win
 Oh It's  like we just  can't win
 Oh It's  like we just  can't win
 Oh It's  like we just  can't win
It's  like we
just  can't win
 And everytime we
 get a little closer
 It all  caves in
It's  like we just  can't win
We  both know we'll never
No  we just can't win
 D--Fm-E-F#m-D--F#m-E--A-D--F#m-E--D-A-E(hold)
