I Must Be a Loser In Some Ancient War

I must be a loser in an ancient war

Every newest struggle I have never seen before

There must be someone pulling strings that

Wants to settle scores

I must be a loser in an ancient war

I must be a loser in some ancient war

I apologize for wearing whatever uniform I wore

I’m sure that someone told me

What I was fighting for

I must be a loser in some ancient war

It would bring me peace

To know why they are coming after me

I must be a loser in some ancient war

Otherwise there’s nothing for me to suffer for

And that would mean it’s only me

Whose mercy I implore

No, I must be a loser in some ancient war

An' I must be a loser in some ancient war

Shackled to the future and what it has in store

What’s worse than forgetting

Who I was before?

I must be a loser in some ancient war

Please let me be

The one who wants the most to pay penance is me

I must be a loser in some ancient war

Punished for my actions before history hit record

The guilt I’ve carried with me was always

Too much to ignore

I must be a loser in some ancient war

Yeah, I must be a loser in some ancient war

I’ve got white flags and flashbacks and tracks on foreign shores

Yeah, I must be in a loser in some ancient war
