Embracing Defeat: Sofía Campoamor's 'Bad Loser' Unveiled
Lyrics
You've always been a bad loser
You consistently struggle with accepting defeat.
You're always changing the game
You frequently alter the rules of the game.
You're both beggar and chooser
You play the roles of both someone in need and someone making choices.
You try to say I'm the same
You attempt to accuse me of the same behavior.
I wish I was a bad loser
I desire to be less gracious in losing, unlike you.
At least I would know when I was losing to you
I would prefer to recognize when I am losing to you.
But I've always been a late bruiser
I am consistently a slow healer, forgetting the origin of my bruises.
Forgot how they got there by the time they turn blue
I lose track of how my injuries occurred by the time they become evident.
You've always been a good actor
You excel at pretending, displaying abundant sincerity.
Plenty of good faith to give
You have a surplus of trust and belief to offer.
She is a master distractor
She is adept at diverting attention, rescuing sinking situations with inadequate tools.
Bailing out ships with a sieve
She tries to fix problems with ineffective methods.
And while I'm taking on water
While I am dealing with difficulties, she is occupied with trivial tasks.
She's making muffins in tins
She is preoccupied with mundane activities in the face of impending challenges.
And keeping the truth from her daughter
She hides the harsh reality from her daughter.
That in the end no one wins
Ultimately, nobody emerges as a winner.
I wish I was a bad loser
I desire to be less gracious in losing, unlike you (repeated).
At least I would know when I was losing to you
I would prefer to recognize when I am losing to you (repeated).
But I've always been a late bruiser
I am consistently a slow healer, forgetting the origin of my bruises (repeated).
Forgot how they got there by the time they turn blue
I lose track of how my injuries occurred by the time they become evident (repeated).
You've always been a bad loser
You consistently struggle with accepting defeat (repeated).
You're always changing the game
You frequently alter the rules of the game (repeated).
Throwing the match to confuse her
You deliberately lose to confuse her.
She can't see it's aflame
She is unaware that the situation is worsening.
I wish I was a bad loser
I desire to be less gracious in losing, unlike you (repeated).
At least I would know when I was losing to you
I would prefer to recognize when I am losing to you (repeated).
But I've always been a late bruiser
I am consistently a slow healer, forgetting the origin of my bruises (repeated).
I know someone got me, I just can't recall who
I acknowledge someone has hurt me, but I can't recall who.
I wish I was a bad loser
I desire to be less gracious in losing, unlike you (repeated).
At least I would know what it was like to be you
I would prefer to understand what it feels like to be you.
But I've always been a late bruiser
I am consistently a slow healer, forgetting the origin of my bruises (repeated).
Forgot how they got there by the time they turn blue
I lose track of how my injuries occurred by the time they become evident (repeated).
