lyrics

I love you but what can we do Em D
I owe my self esteem mostly to you
and now you take the one thing that I held so dear Bm7 Cmaj7
I felt like myself when you were near
never knew love could do such harm Am7 D
my romantic products aren't in demand Am7 B7

I guess I was born to be a loser Em C D
I guess I was a fool, I didn't choose her
modern love is just desperation Am C
a distant sound on the radio station Am C D

I love myelf but in a strange way
seem so alone in these strange days
I've lost everything about which I cared
where I felt love I am gripped by fear
never knew malice could be so strong
never really felt like I belonged

I guess I was born to be a loser
I guess I was a fool, I didn't choose her
modern love is just desperation
image from afar on the television
D Dm
we all know it's somewhat true Bb C Dm
I owe a part of my life to you
now I don't know what I'm to do
could you be my greater fool F C G D

it's probably true don't know who I am
but lately I don't seem to give damn
I'd give up everythng to turn back time
before I lost my reason I lost my rhyme
when I stare vacantly into my screen
I don't see your face if you know what I mean
