Fate caught me out today
Without a word to say
Without a card to play
My luck has finally run dry
I'm under a black sky
Don't know the reason why
But I know
I'm not the one no I'm not the one to blame
I lost
This time it slipped away
But that was yesterday
I'll find another way
You're gone
And my world turns to grey
The pain is hard to take
But it'll fade away
Cos I know
I'm not the one no I'm not the one to blame
Cos if
I blame myself I'll fall
Between the prison walls
With no hope left at all
And if
The fault was mine there'd be
A shadow left of me
My world would crumble in on me
A tread a tightrope
I've got to keep my head up
Or choke on all my hope
I'm high above the ground
Got to keep believing
I'll fall if I look down
No I'm not the one no I'm not the one to blame
