Love's Loser

A post cd song, written more recently.

I never knew the rules
I never had a clue
My hearts on my sleeve
My brain is of a fool

You had me trapped in a corner
Afraid for my life
And when I opened my eyes
God knows I was right

  I'm just love's loser
  Waiting here for you
  I'm loves loser
  I can't believe this is true
  And now I'm all alone
  It was checkmate and then you were gone

Love is a game of throw the dice
Jump feet first and don't think twice
Russian roulette or russian necktie
Either way, something dies

I got outplayed fair and square
My opponent took advantage, I guess that's fair
You were my ace in the hole
My full house, the part of my soul

I'm just love's loser
  Waiting here for you
  I'm loves loser
  I can't believe this is true
  And now I'm all alone
  It was checkmate and then you were gone

It's just another loss for me
I rack 'em up like it's suppose to be
God can't hear me when I plead
Now I just sit here and bleed

I'm just love's loser
  Waiting here for you
  I'm loves loser
  I can't believe this is true
  And now I'm all alone
  It was checkmate and then you were gone
