Losers Club

I said this time last year That we'd be gone, but we're still here Just waiting for our turn to go But no one seems to notice We're still swimming upstream with the best of us Another summer passes by Like water through our fingers Crows feet creep a little deeper Creasing like a piece of paper But origami never seemed so beautiful Pack it in, give it up, and let it go You'll only be the winner of the losers club Is what the cool kids say when the going gets too tough So I laugh it off, live it up, and let it slide I light a cigarette and try another time What's the point of living if you never strive for more But I'm not keeping score We were once so young and dumb When the whole world seemed to notice us We used to care so much about the pimples on our faces No one ever told us it's the words that stay We used to daydream about the things we've come to call mundane Always keeping out eyes fixed upon the next thing that we think we need If only we could let the moment soak in Pack it in, give it up, and let it go You'll only be the winner of the losers club Is what the cool kids say when the going gets too tough So I laugh it off, live it up, and let it slide I light a cigarette and try another time What's the point of living if you never strive for more But I'm not keeping score Because in the end the cool kids wind up just as miserable Maybe the only way to win the game is not to play at all Pack it in, give it up, and let it go You'll only be the winner of the losers club Is what the cool kids say when the going gets too tough So I laugh it off, live it up, and let it slide I light a cigarette and try another time What's the point of living if you never strive for more But I'm not keeping score
