lyrics

I would like this one more story
To be something special for me
In this mood i could be fine
I could have something on my mind

I write, replace, retype and retrace
Those words i can sing but i cannot face
Illustrate my former glory all wrapped up in another story song

Leaving it all before i am dead
Leaving it all while i am alive
Believing it all because i am forever moving on

It's hard for me to stay where i belong

I can think of a million times where i paid for all my crimes
I can think of a million more where i got away and settled the score

I guess life just ain't what it seems
While I was out there chasing my dreams
I've been through heaven and I lived through hell
I got away with a bunch of stories to sell

It was always the waiting,
It was never being satisfied
It was always complaining,

I needed someone just to take me aside and say

"mate, you're alright, you had a lucky break,
Take what you can before it goes away
Fate and all that is just a fallacy,
Pick yourself up and take a look and see"

There will always be those,
Who pick you up just to bring you down
You gotta stay on your toes,
Don't give up until you have burned it to the ground

When i got arrested - you add it to the story
When i got deported - you add it to the story
When i got addicted - you add it to the story
When i'm broken hearted - you add it to the story

WHEN IM NOT INVESTED - you add it to the story
WHEN I AM DETESTED - you add it to the story
When i'm getting bested - you add it to the story
When i'm feeling rested - you add it to the story

If i don't suggest it - you add it to the story
I think it's for the best if - you add it to the story

When i'm saying please, i'm just a fucking chancer
I'm down here on my knees, i'm looking for an answer

I would like this one more story to be something special for me
In this mood i could be fine
I could be sick and so unkind

I will take extreme displeasure in the things that you most treasure
Illustrate my lack of vision with some bullshit indecision in song

It's hard for me to stay where I belong.

So we add it to the story
