"BAD LUCK!" lyrics

"BAD LUCK!"

This time around's no different
I've played with chance like you
I loved to toy with fate
But, oh, I didn't have a clue

That I would lose, oh, I would lose
Between my left and right, one day I'd have to choose (I'd have to choose)
"You're not like me, I'm not like you, I'm not who these things happen to"
And that's exactly what you say before they do

I can't dance like I used to
I don't have the same moves as you
But that's okay, fortune find your way
To someone who needs it much more than me

Hand in hand come human error
And plain bad luck
It seems the timing's always wrong for the ones who wait too long
You'll never catch a break, you'll have to make your own

My legs drag behind me
And they creak in syncopated time
But I know that one day I will lose them too
I didn't have a clue

That I would lose, oh, I would lose
Between my left and right, one day, I'd have to choose
"You're not like me, I'm not like you, I'm not who these things happen to"
And that's exactly what you say before it catches up to you
Before you play with knives and find yourself in two, you, you, you
You, you, you, you

I finally climbed to heights I
No matter how I try, can't descend
Still somehow they're looking down on me
Laughing 'cause I got what I deserved
(You got what you deserved)
And I would do it again
I'm not sorry, but thank you for enduring me
As long as you did
That's more than I'd ever ask of you
