Dreams Bled Dry

[Verse 1] Well, I wake up each morning with hope in my heart, But it seems like that hope just tears me apart. I put on my boots and I face the day, But it's like I'm stuck in some cruel replay. Every time I think I'm bound to win, Fate just laughs and does me in. It's like a curse, I can't break free, And it's dragging me down to my knees. [Chorus] I'm the king of trying and failing, Every dream I chase, ends up derailing. It's a comedy of errors, a tragic song, Where everything I touch just goes wrong. [Verse 2] I try to work hard and do what's right, But it's like I'm dancing in the darkest night. No matter how hard I push and strive, I'm always left barely alive. There's snakes in the grass, waiting to strike, They'll stab you in the back if you're not alike. I've seen good folks fall to their knees, In this world where nobody's free. [Chorus] I'm the king of trying and failing, Every dream I chase, ends up derailing. It's a comedy of errors, a tragic song, Where everything I touch just goes wrong. [Instrumental] [Bridge] I'm tired of fighting against the tide, Of watching my dreams get cast aside. But I'll keep on pushing, come what may, Maybe one day, things will go my way. [End]
