"Lucky" lyrics

"Lucky"

I am so lucky

Everybody, get in line to meet the girl who flew too high
Who does it all just to be liked by strangers that she met online
Did it all to be included, my self-loathing's so deep-rooted
Inner child that's unrecruited, the truth is I'm not suited for it

When I die, I won't have time to spend my money
But I hope that you still love me

'Cause I'm so lucky, I'm a star
But I cry, cry, cry in my lonely heart, thinkin'
"If there's nothin' missin' in my life
Then why do these tears come at night?" (Why? Why?)

Why they come? Why they come?
Why they come? Why they come?

And why she losin' so much weight?
I heard it's from the drugs she ate
And I feel her, but I can't relate
'Cause I'd never end up in that state
A girl like that is a mother
Must be tough
A problem child, I was rough
But what do you do with a difficult grown-up?

When I die, I won't have time to spend my money
But I hope that you still love me (Da-da-da-da-da)

'Cause I'm so lucky (I'm so lucky), I'm a star
But I cry, cry, cry in my lonely heart, thinkin'
"If there's nothin' missin' in my life
Then why do these tears come at night?"

I shaved my head four times because I wanted to
And then I did it one more time 'cause I got sick (I am so lucky)
And I thought I'd changed so much, nobody would notice it
And no one did

Then I left the doctor's office full of tears
Became a single mom at my premiere
And I told everybody I was fine for a whole damn year
And that's the biggest lie of my career

But I'm so lucky (Lucky), I'm a star
But I cry, cry, cry in my lonely heart, thinkin'
"If there's nothin' missin' in my life
Then why do these tears come at night?"
I'm so lucky (Lucky), I'm a star
But I cry, cry, cry in my lonely heart, thinkin'
"If there's nothin' missin' in my life
Then why do these tears come at night?"

She's so lucky, she's so lucky
She's so lucky, she's so lucky, she's so
Haven't you heard?

"Lucky" is the lead single from Halsey's fifth studio album. The song was premiered on July 26, 2024, accompanied by the music video.
Halsey's "Lucky" interpolates Britney Spears' song "Lucky". Halsey explained, "When I was 5, it always felt like Britney was singing directly to me. 24 years later, these words hit different. Love you forever." She also shared on X on the song's release day, the 26th of July, 2024, "I remember the first time I heard her sing 'Lucky' and it hitting me at such a young age that I had no idea what her life was really like. And that feeling resonates with me so much still."
