I can't win.
I can't beat this worm in my brain that tells me you're only wearing sheep's skin.
That beneath you're a wolf,
a dangerous threat;
And if I don't watch out you might **** me dead.

I can't win.
When I try to see your best side the worm screams the worst.
My attempts to just love you, tarnished by this curse.
And my fear runs wild and my anger festers long
And I don't see the beauty when you're playing your songs.

I can't win, I can't say all the things I want to.
It'll just make it worse between me and you.
Even though I know that you too are in fear
I wish you were better, a friend and a peer.
To others as well. But you only see him.
When I'm around you I just can't win.
