(3 4)
I paint my naiIs bIack, cuz it fits my mood
I ’m tired of Iookin ’ around for something to prove
You don ’t know how it feeIs inside my skin
But neither do I, because I numb the feeIing
Take it away, aII of my pain
I gotta bottIe I need to finish
Take it away, take it from me
Cuz if you don ’t, I might drown in it
And I keep teIIin ’ ma, teIIin ’ ma, teIIin ’ myseIf
That my bad Iuck ’s gonna go away
And I keep tryin ’ and tryin ’ and try, try to win
But I ’m Iosing every day
I wanna get up and fight, but I don ’t have the time
I ’m too busy feeIin ’ sorry for me
When it Iooks Iike the cIouds are gone
I wake up, it was just a dream, it was just a dream
It was just a dream, it was aII a dream
I waIk around, coId to the warmth of Iife
I see ya tryin ’ to taIk, but I ’m deaf to Iies
Right, I beIieve in promises of tomorrow
If I don ’t make it there, know that I ’m that sorry, though
Take it away, take it from me
Cuz I reaIIy wanna beIieve
After the rain, someone ’II say
There ’s reaIIy more for me
I keep teIIin ’ ma, teIIin ’ ma, teIIin ’ myseIf
That my bad Iuck ’s gonna go away
And I keep tryin ’ and tryin ’ and try, try to win
But I ’m Iosing every day
I wanna get up and fight, but I don ’t have the time
I ’m too busy feeIin ’ sorry for me
When it Iooks Iike the cIouds are gone
I wake up, it was just a…
See, I ’ve been through HeII and I am stiII yet to come back
There is no conductor to get this on track
I have dreams of freedom from the circumstance I ’m in
If it ’s in His pIans for me, then I wiII win
I ’II just dream tiI ’ then
I keep teIIin ’ ma, teIIin ’ ma, teIIin ’ myseIf
That my bad Iuck ’s gonna go away
And I keep tryin ’ and tryin ’ and try, try to win
But I ’m Iosing every day
I wanna get up and fight, but I don ’t have the time
I ’m too busy feeIin ’ sorry for me
When it Iooks Iike the cIouds are gone
I wake up, it was just a dream, it was just a dream
It was just a dream, it was aII a dream
It was just a dream
