LYRICS

Someone's got it in for me

I don't want your sympathy

Life just never turned out how I wanted it to

Could have been a shooting star

Should have made it past the bar

Would have been a winner if I ever got that far

 

What a state I'm in

My self-pitying

Here's another victim

Singing suffering

 

If only I had made the grade

Been more loved, been less afraid

I only I had scored the goal

Got the girl, or even played

 

What a state I'm in

My self-pitying

Here's another victim

Singing suffering

 

Fall, let it fall away

These lies breaking us apart

To be born again then fall

Let it fall away

These lies

Breaking us apart

To be born again

To be born again

To be born again

 

My life's turned to minor chords

Lose a son and life's a bore

Can't see the point in living in the fashion anymore

 

What a state I'm in

My self-pitying

Here's another victim

Selling suffering

Fall, let it fall away

These lies breaking us apart

To be born again then fall

Let it fall away

These lies

Breaking us apart

To be born again

To be born again

To be born again
