Lyrics
Who, who are you misfortune?
Expressing curiosity about the identity of misfortune.
Are you real enough to help me to see?
Questioning whether misfortune is tangible enough to provide insight.
I'm caught up in your rapture
Feeling entrapped in the allure of misfortune.
With the words that you expect me to believe
Acknowledging the persuasive words that misfortune expects belief in.
And who do you think you are?
Questioning the identity of misfortune.
Nobody that I can recall
Denying knowledge of misfortune's identity.
Well, I swear that I saw you before
Recalling a possible encounter with misfortune.
Maybe in a dream, euphoria
Suggesting a previous encounter with misfortune in a dream or state of euphoria.
Tell me is that your name?
Inquiring about misfortune's name.
Or isn't our reflection the same?
Questioning the similarity between the speaker and misfortune.
Or am I going insane?
Contemplating the possibility of going insane.
I don't think I'm meant to be played
Asserting a reluctance to be manipulated or played.
Maybe I do (ooh)
Expressing uncertainty or ambivalence.
Why don't anybody wanna look me in the eye?
Wondering why people avoid making eye contact.
What did I do?
Pondering the reason for the speaker's current situation.
And I don't wanna say it but
Reluctance to express a thought or revelation.
Misfortune is the look in their eyes
Describing the look of misfortune in others' eyes.
Misfortune, no friend of mine
Rejecting misfortune as a companion.
I'm willing to testify
Expressing a willingness to testify against misfortune.
Her intentions are all I've found
Indicating that misfortune's intentions are all that is evident.
Can you hear the judgment now?
Prompting the listener to hear the judgment against misfortune.
And who do you think you are?
Repeating the question about misfortune's identity.
Somebody that I can recall, oh
Acknowledging a vague familiarity with misfortune.
And I know I swear we met before
Recalling a previous encounter with misfortune.
Maybe in a dream, euphoria
Suggesting another encounter with misfortune in a dream or euphoria.
Tell me is that my name?
Repeating the question about the speaker's name.
I couldn't see that we were the same
Realizing a commonality between the speaker and misfortune.
They say that I'm going insane
Reacting to the suggestion of insanity.
'Cause I'm the only one in this game
Asserting uniqueness in the game being played.
I never lose (ooh-hoo)
Claiming a determination not to lose.
Why don't anybody wanna look me in the eye?
Questioning why others avoid eye contact.
What did I do?
Repeating the pondering of the reason for the speaker's situation.
And I don't wanna say it but
Reluctance to express a thought or revelation.
Misfortune is the look in my eye (ah, ooh)
Describing the look of misfortune in the speaker's eyes.
