Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh

"You think you're the only monster on the team?"

Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh

"I have no place in the world."

A broken heart is all that's left

Bruce, you didn't have to go.

I'm still fixing all the cracks

How do I put myself together again? I do it differently every time...

Lost a couple of pieces when

Patched up all my leaks.

I carried it, carried it, carried it home

Until the blame got too heavy.

I'm afraid of all I am

I'm fixed but not exactly.

My mind feels like a foreign land

I didn't want to be like this.

Silence ringing inside my head

But here I stand.

Please, carry me, carry me, carry me home

With shaky knees.

I've spent all of the love I saved

I didn't want to be alone, I didn't want you to be alone, yet here we are.

We were always a losing game

All alone.

Small-town boy in a big arcade

"I'm also a we."

I got addicted to a losing game

"We lost."

Oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh

Some move on.

All I know, all I know

We don't move on.

Loving you is a losing game

This (my) journey is at its end.

How many pennies in the slot?

The price of freedom. The price of winning. The price of peace.

Giving us up didn't take a lot

You left us.

I saw the end 'fore it begun

Die hard. Live easy.

Still I carried, I carried, I carried on

Pick up your heart, and move on.

Oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh

Don't cry.

All I know, all I know

It'd break me to see you cry.

Loving you is a losing game

Easy there, big guy.

Oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh

"I don't judge people on their worst mistakes."

All I know, all I know

I tried to love you but all I did was lose you.

Loving you is a losing game

Lose you.

I don't need your games, game over

And then it's over.

Get me off this rollercoaster

Because it stopped.

Oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh

You heart.

All I know, all I know

It stopped.

Loving you is a losing game

And that broke mine, not yours, Tasha.

Oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh

Endgame. We were never Endgame.

All I know, all I know

Is that, it's okay.

Loving you is a losing game

But it's really not.

Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh

The Black Widow was a legend.

Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh

And legends always die hard.
