working hard just to hear a yes
preparing for a let down, unsure of success
high hopes in lower standards
third try on a second guess
heartbroken from receiving a denial
quickly mended for another trial
a ray of sunshine through a broken cloud
comes to burn me
come on and burn me
always burned by happiness
third degree scarred across my chest
third try on a second guess
one more try, and then i’ll rest
i always miss the first
but the first isn’t always the best
