Cynthia BuhainBaello - Loser

If you look at how high
The wall before you is
You'll be too scared to even try
So sure that you will miss.

If you look at the waves
You will lose your breath
Before you even take a swim
Afraid you will get all wet.

If you think of the Past
And blame all that you are
To those memories that don't last
For sure, you won't go very far.

A man who keeps looking back
Never gets to take the chance
He keeps counting the things he lacks
He believes in retreat, never advance.
