[Verse 1]
I paint my nails black because it fits my mood
I’m tired of looking around for something to prove
You don’t know how it feels inside my skin
But neither do I because I numb the feeling

[Pre-Chorus]
Take it away, all of my pain
I got a bottle I got to finish
Take it away, take it from me
Because if you don’t, I might drown in it

[Chorus]
And I keep telling myself, telling myself
That my bad luck is gonna go away
And I keep trying and trying and try, try to win
But I’m losing every day
I wanna get up fight but I don’t have the time
I’m too busy feeling sorry for me
When it looks like the clouds are gone
I wake up, it was just a dream
It was just a dream, it was just a dream
It was all a dream

[Verse 2]
I walk around cold to the warmth of life
I, I see you’re trying to talk
But I’m deaf to lies, right
I believe in promises of tomorrow
If I don’t make it there know that I’m sorry though
[Pre-Chorus]
Take it away, take it from me
Because I really want to believe
After the rain, someone will say
That there really is more for me

[Chorus]
And I keep telling myself, telling myself
That my bad luck is gonna go away
And I keep trying and trying and try, try to win
But I’m losing every day
I wanna get up fight but I don’t have the time
I’m too busy feeling sorry for me
When it looks like the clouds are gone
I wake up, it was just a…

[Bridge]
See I’ve been through hell and
I am still 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 plans for me then I will win
I’ll just dream until then

[Chorus]
And I keep telling myself, telling myself
That my bad luck is gonna go away
And I keep trying and trying and try, try to win
But I’m losing every day
I wanna get up fight but I don’t have the time
I’m too busy feeling sorry for me
When it looks like the clouds are gone
I wake up, it was just a…
It was just a dream
