[Intro]
Three, four

[Verse 1]
I paint my nails black as 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

[Pre-Chorus]
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

[Chorus]
And I keep tellin' my, tellin' my, tellin' myself
That my bad luck's gonna go away
And I keep tryin' and tryin' and try, try to win
But I'm losin' 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
Mm, mm
[Verse 2]
I walk around cold to the warmth of life
I see you're tryna 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
'Cause I really wanna believe
After the rain, someone will say
That there really is more for me

[Chorus]
And I keep tellin' my, tellin' my, tellin' myself
That my bad luck's gonna go away
And I keep tryin' and tryin' and try, try to win
But I'm losin' 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...

[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 'til then
[Chorus]
And I keep tellin' my, tellin' my, tellin' myself
That my bad luck's gonna go away
And I keep tryin' and tryin' and try, try to win
But I'm losin' 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

[Outro]
Oh-oh, ooh, ah
La-da-da-da-da-da-da-da
It was all, all a dream
