[Verse 1]
I can't get through
Knots in my mind
I resent
The self I can't find

[Pre-Chorus 1]
I can't get through
I can't get through

[Chorus 1]
Oh, a paper and a pencil
Are the best friends I've got
I went to downtown LA
Got picked up by the cops
Didn't get what I wanted
But I didn't care a lot
I saw that life was kidding
Look on, look on, look on
Look on, look on, look on

[Verse 2]
I'm warnin' you (Ooh, ah)
I skipped a life (Ooh, ah)
To be here (Ooh, ah)
I've got no right (Ooh, ah)
[Pre-Chorus 2]
I'm bad luck
I'm bad luck

[Chorus 2]
Oh, I used to feel a lot
Things used to be alright
So much was goin' on
I'm empty now inside
When I thought life was terrible
Things were goin' fine
Vincent called as a set up
Look on, look on, look on
Look on, look on, look on
Look on, look on, look on
Look on, look on, look on
Look on, look on, look on
Look on, look on, look on
Look on, look on, look on

[Verse 3]
It's not right
I lost my fame
It's a cheap trick
Wanna do it again
[Pre-Chorus 3]
I've got no life
I've got no life

[Chorus 3]
Oh, I am a separate entity
From the guy I was before
Here nobody wants me
I hoped for something more
I flip through empty pages
I thought I wrote on
I can't tell what is dreaming
Look on, look on, look on
Look on, look on, look on
Look on, look on, look on
Look on, look on, look on
