Someone's got it in for me
I don't want your sympathy
Life just never turned out how I wanted it to

Could have been a shooting star
Should have made it past the bar
Would have been a winner if I'd ever got that far

What a state I'm in
My self pitying
Here's another victim
Singing suffering

If only I had made the grade
Been more loved
Been less afraid
If only I had scored the goal
Got the girl
Or even played

What a state I'm in
My self pitying
Here's another victim
Singing suffering

Fall
Let it fall away
Then rise
To be born again
Then fall
Let it fall away
Then rise
To be born again

My life's turned to minor chords
Loser sad
And life's a bore
Can't see the point of living
In this fashion anymore

What a state I'm in
My self pitying
Here's another victim
Selling suffering

Fall
Let it fall away
Then rise
To be born again
Then fall
Let it fall away
Then rise
To be born again
