Fighting a Losing War lyrics

Will you write another sad, sad song?
While sitting up at night when you can't sleep
I know it's obnoxious, and it's useless
To fight a war you're losing
Between what could and shouldn't be

This might be your only chance
To find out where your paths will lead
I know it's obnoxious, and it's useless
To fight a war you're losing
If you're too careful, you'll seem careless
And if you call, you'll sound so desperate
Isn't that what you are?
Isn't that what we all are?
