[Verse

Pillow to punch with my love gloves

Concrete head to stumble out of

Darkened room to add light to

Someone to lean on like a tattoo

[Chorus

Sometimes you lose

Sometimes you don't

Sometimes she calls you on your house phone

And sometimes her friends are with you

Too

Sometimes it's you

Sometimes it's someone you loved

[Verse 2

Empty jar to catch all my tears

Swimming pool for me to drown your fears

Solemn portrait to hang near my bed

Peptol Bismol to absorb all the red

[Chorus

Sometimes you lose

Sometimes you don't

Sometimes she calls you on your cell phone

And sometimes her friends are with you

Too

Sometimes it's you

Sometimes it's someone you loved

[Bridge

When I stood by my pop

I had my arms locked

When I cradled her mom

I had my arms locked

And when I stood by his tomb

Still had my arms locked

But when I held you

Still had my arms locked

And when I have you

And when I hug you

And when I kiss you

And when I make love to you

I have my arms locked and: (incoherent yelling)

And when I see you

I did my arms locked

And I (incoherent yelling)

I had my arms locked but I (incoherent yelling)

When I'm ahemeral

When I'm apherical

When I (incoherent yelling)

And when I'm ahemeral

When I'm apherical (me alone)
