Why would I again choose?
Why indeed but to lose
All of those simple things,
Like love’s mean fairy rings?
The sun set a while ago,
Time dispels her quiet woe,
The stars are veiled tonight,
They can’t cast their soothing light;
The moon is guarded too,
Tonight she begins anew,
A new tale, a new spin,
Where again I won’t win.
All I sought in all this black
Was for love to love me back,
Since it can’t the way I choose,
I’ll just get ready to lose.
