Will to Win

Minutes seem like hours and days seem like weeks But I finally pick up the phone ringing there and she speaks In a calm voice like an angel she says she ain't coming back And I stare into a broken mirror and try to face that fact
Now I'm standin' in this desert heat just waiting for the end Cause nothings gonna save me now I've lost my will to win
I've burnt a lot of rubber tryin' to get out of this town I've never looked for trouble but that's all that I've ever found In the pool halls and the bar rooms that's where I spend my night Till the locals come to lock me up for jumpin' in a fight
My dad will come on down to bail me out again But nothing's gonna save me now I've lost my will to win
She was standin' on the corner with a diamond in her eye She had lost all her money but she was never one to cry When he offered her a job turning tricks for a spell Her life all but unraveled as she spun a path to hell
Now she's vanished down that road into the dust, into the wind And nothin' could've saved her since she lost her will to win
