Lyrics
I could tell you some stories you wouldn't believe.
I have experiences that might be hard to believe.
Sit in a chair and perform a reprieve.
Sit and take a break from something distressing or difficult.
What good would it do
What positive outcome would it achieve?
For you or for me?
For either you or me?
It's a shame
It's regrettable.
Loss after loss
Continual unfortunate events.
I'm never the same
I'm never unchanged by these experiences.
The rules that you follow
The guidelines you adhere to.
Things never change.
But things remain the same.
Shift after shift
Change after change, yet I'm still not convinced.
I'm still not convinced
Life feels like a game.
Life's a game.
How conceited would I be if I thought higher powers were deliberately causing me suffering?
But how arrogant would I have to be
At times, I contemplate.
If I believed gods were torturing me?
As far as I can see.
Sometimes I wonder
Unfortunate circumstances or bad luck.
When as far as the eye can see
Repetition of the phrase emphasizing the ongoing experience of bad luck.
Is down luck
Continued emphasis on experiencing persistent bad luck.
Down luck
-Down luck
-Down luck
Feeling of isolation and disillusionment with past beliefs.
I walk to a meeting
-Walk to the store
-The street's lookin emptier than before
-The reigns that I had weren't attached to anything more
-Than my own neck
-I'm a fool for the times I
Realization of being naive regarding certain beliefs.
Believed they were more
-Than a bedside blanket
-c transient snore
-My stomach is empty
Feeling physically and emotionally drained.
cnd my heart keeps pouring for
-Two
-But how arrogant would I have to be
Repetition emphasizing the extended experience of bad luck.
If I believed gods were torturing me?
-Sometimes I wonder
-When as far as the eye can
-See
-Is down luck
-Down luck
-Down luck
-Down luck
Continuation of the theme of prolonged misfortune.
Down luck
-Down luck
-Down luck
-Down luck
-cre you down on your luck?
Directly questioning someone's current state of misfortune and feeling stuck.
Feelin stuck?
-cre you down on your luck?
-Can't get unstuck.
