Lucky Kid

I can get no sleep tonight
Ruins glooming in this grey morning light
All I want is peace from this bad dream
My head pounds like a bell
My veins run dust right through my cells
I must have been drinking all night
Over seven days alike

I cannot lie to myself, I want it back
I wanna be the lucky kid I was again
I cannot fake someone else, I want my share
I wanna be your skinny girl

I don’t want this any more
I can’t stay inside these walls no more
Come on and bomb me out the house onto the road
I can’t spare a single cent
The ashtray is our monument
We must have been smoking all night
Over seven days alike

I cannot lie to myself, I want it back
I wanna be the silly kid I was again
I cannot fake someone else, I want my share
I wanna be among others
I wanna see what there is to see
I wanna smile like I used to
I wanna listen to what they sing
I’m on my way to recover (I’ll be a lucky kid again)
I’m trying to forget all that I know
About this life and its sorrows

It’s more than bad luck all the time
Over seven years alike
