Already Lost

by Jeff Taylor

on Retrograde (2017)

Verse 1
In the course of all my history
I never once could solve this mystery
Feeling way ahead yet so behind
Maybe I'm just not the winning kind

Verse 2
If I could only seem to get it right
Living for the day, not awaiting night
Many days I wake without a cause
And I can feel that I've already lost

Verse 3
When I thought perhaps I'd find a love
And I'd be all that he was thinking of
In the time it took for me to fall
I realized that I'd already lost

Chorus
Oh oh oh
Oh oh oh
Oh oh oh
Oh oh oh
Oh oh oh
Oh oh oh
I realized that I'd already lost

Verse 4
When I looked around at 25
And I wondered how I'd stayed alive
And my demons came to count their cost
They couldn't find what I'd already lost
They realized that I'd already lost

Chorus
Oh oh oh (Hey)
Oh oh oh
Oh oh oh (Ooh)
Oh oh oh
Oh oh oh (Hey)
Oh oh oh
I realized that I'd already lost
I realized that I'd already lost
