Lyrics

Three cheers for the masterplan

Expressing enthusiasm for a well-thought-out plan or strategy.

Clenched fist with a broken hand

Illustrating determination despite facing difficulties or setbacks.

Stuck in a corner, stuck in a corner

Feeling trapped or confined, possibly in a challenging situation.


False start, with no second chance

Beginning something with an initial failure and no opportunity for redemption.

Built your house on a bed of sand

Building a foundation on unstable ground, leading to inevitable problems.

It's underwater, it's underwater

Describing a situation that is submerged or overwhelmed.


Back up, bad luck, she's at it again

Encountering setbacks and misfortune, possibly due to someone's actions.

I got a real big problem and she don't care

Highlighting a significant problem that is being ignored or disregarded.

So sick and tired of coming in last

Expressing frustration at consistently finishing last or being unsuccessful.

I'm spitting blood, I'm chewing glass

Describing intense physical and emotional distress, possibly due to a challenging situation.


Got tricked by a pretty lie

Being deceived by an attractive falsehood or illusion.

It's no greener on the other side

Acknowledging that alternate options or paths are not necessarily better.

Like a lamb to the slaughter, lamb to the slaughter

Comparing oneself to a naive sacrifice, led unsuspectingly into a harmful situation.


Don't care if I live or die

Expressing a sense of apathy towards life and its uncertainties.

Modern life is a firefight

Characterizing modern life as a constant and intense struggle.

And I'm not a soldier, not a soldier

Asserting a non-combatant role in the midst of life's challenges.


Back up, bad luck, she's at it again

Repeating the theme of encountering misfortune or obstacles due to someone's actions.

Yeah I got a real big problem and she don't care

Reiterating the presence of a significant problem that is being ignored.

So sick and tired of coming in last

Expressing weariness and dissatisfaction with consistently being in a losing position.

I'm spitting blood, I'm chewing glass

Re-emphasizing intense physical and emotional distress, symbolized by "chewing glass."
