Unlucky
Another friend and another try
Nothing’s here but a thousand lies
Another girl and another sigh
Nothing’s here but I still deny
The pretty pictures build a masquerade
I just stare as my feelings fade
An empty corner where I wait and see
It's the only place where my mind is free
All I want is my happiness
Helping others brings me emptiness
If I leech I know that I'll die
Just give me lies and take me far from this
It’s fair to say I never stood a chance
But building anger puts me in a trance
I’m right to say that we’re all lost in lies
The lucky laugh whilst unlucky people cry
In this theatre I judge the dreams
Dreaming people live in dreamy screams
It’s no-one’s fault but it’s still hard to stand
Wake up now before my hate demands
