(3, 4)

I paint my nails black, cuz it fits my mood

I'm tired of lookin' around for something to prove

You don't know how it feels inside my skin

But neither do I, because I numb the feeling

Take it away, all of my pain

I gotta bottle I need to finish

Take it away, take it from me

Cuz if you don't, I might drown in it.

And 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.

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.
