Born To Lose Lyrics by Elle Coves

Selfishly Inclined - EP

2024

[Verse 1]
One more this, one more that, one more, "Love you"
I hate that I've been keeping score
But your silence, it could start a war
[Verse 2]
One more half of the truth, one more, "We're through"
Now you're standing outside my door
With a line that's never worked before
[Pre-Chorus]
Ooh-ooh-ooh
What makes you think your tears can put this fire out?
[Chorus]
And you called it love
How can you sit and let us turn to dust?
Think you can kill it, and it grows right back
Oh, no, no, it doesn't work like that
And it's just like you
Pushing the limit like you're born to lose
Think you can bend it and that we won't crack
Oh, no, no, it doеsn't work like that
[Verse 3]
It was over
Way beforе you dropped my hand
What a slow burn, let-down of a mess
Can you see it again?
Did you notice?
[Chorus]
And you called it love
How can you sit and let us turn to dust?
Think you can kill it, and it grows right back
Oh, no, no, it doesn't work like that
And it's just like you
Pushing the limit like you're born to lose
Think you can bend it and that we won't crack
Oh, no, no, it doesn't work like that
[Bridge]
No, no, no, no, no
No, no, no, no, it doesn't—
No, no, no, no, it doesn't work like that
[Pre-Chorus]
Ooh-ooh-ooh
What makes you think your tears can put this fire out?
[Chorus]
And you called it love
How can you sit and let us turn to dust?
Think you can kill it, and it grows right back
Oh, no, no, it doesn't work like that
And it's just like you
Pushing the limit like you're born to lose
Think you can bend it and that we won't crack
Oh, no, no, it doesn't work like that
[Outro]
(It was over) No, no, no, no, no
(It was over) No, no, no, no, it doesn't—
No, no, no, no, it doesn't work like that
