Failing In Love

So close to givin’ up when you stay you’re fuckin’ up
When your prayings not enough and the tears don’t work
I thought we were family, so you know how it hurts
I'm crazy about you but that’s not enough
For my boys who a man, still never grew up
I don’t wanna feel this, don’t wanna get stuck
I'm in, I'm out
Can’t get over you, no doubt
Wish I, wish I knew what I do now
Wouldn’t keep the door open ‘till you appear
Oh, I'm passin’ your house
Got me wanna burn it to the ground
Damn I, I wish I knew what I do now
But it wouldn’t even save us
And I keep failing in love
How’d I lose it?
Feels like it’s never enough
But I can’t let it go
And I keep giving my all
So tired, so tired, so tired
And I keep failing in love
How’d I lose it?
Not getting any rest ‘causе this love has been a headache
It usеd to be fun, was your only one
It used to be feelings, now it’s just a mess
Nobody really wins when there’s beef between me and you
‘Cause I’ma do me, and you gon’ do you
And now it’s a problem ‘cause you don’t approve
I'm in, I'm out
Can’t get over you, no doubt
Wish I, wish I knew what I do now
Wouldn’t keep the door open ‘till you appear
Oh, I'm passin’ your house
Got me wanna burn it to the ground
Damn I, I wish I knew what I do now
But it wouldn’t even save us
And I keep failing in love
How’d I lose it?
Feels like it’s never enough
But I can’t let it go
And I keep giving my all
So tired, so tired, so tired
And I keep failing in love
How’d I lose it?
