Verse 1:
3, 4
I paint my nails black
'Cause it fits my mood-
I'm tired of lookin' around
for somethin' to prove
You don't know how it feels
inside my skin
But neither do I because
I'm nothing but feeling
Take it away, all of my pain
I got a bottle I got to finish
Take it away, take it from me
'Cause if you don't
I might drown in it
And I keep tellin' ma,
tellin' ma tellin myself
bad luck's gonna go away
And I keep tryin' and tryin'
and tryin'to win
but I'm losin' everyday
I wanna get up and fight
but I'm to busy feelin'
sorry for me
(Chorus)
When it looks like
the clouds are gone
I wake up
It was just a dream (3x)
It was all a dream
Mhmm
Verse 2:
I walk around, cold to the warmth of life
I see ya tryin' 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 that sorry, though
Take it away, take it from me
Cuz I really wanna believe
After the rain, someone'll say
There's really more for me
I keep tellin' ma, tellin' ma, tellin' myself
That my bad luck's gonna go away
And I keep tryin' and tryin' and try, try to win
But I'm losing every day
I wanna get up and fight, but I don't have the time
I'm too busy feelin' sorry for me
When it looks like the clouds are gone
I wake up, it was just a...
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 til' then
I keep tellin' ma, tellin' ma, tellin' myself
That my bad luck's gonna go away
And I keep tryin' and tryin' and try, try to win
But I'm losing every day
I wanna get up and fight, but I don't have the time
I'm too busy feelin' 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
It was just a dream
