Every Wonder Why?
ever wonder why you do the things you do
the things you say
the decisions that you ultimately choose?
ever wonder why you hope for a better life
another way
another day that could come along to make things right
ever wonder why you move to places you've never been
its all the same
same politics different environment
ever wonder why you always have something to prove
but give or take
i'd say you'll never win if you never learned to lose
