Oh God, how did it come to this
Tell me how did I end up here?
Failure seems to run through my veins
agony is my middle name
Where I seek joy, I find misery
Where I look for trust, I find contempt
Keep chasing the world looking for sympathy
But to a life of sorrow I'm condemned
Isn't there anyone here, who will take pity on me
Won't you look at me, I'm so distraught
Help me put the blame on anyone else but me
For your solutions I care not
Enter my world and hear out, these tales of tragedy
Give me some validation of my sad reality
I'll talk and you will listen, that's how it's meant to be
Enter my world and share this life of misery
Bad luck has got me in its grip
suffering paves the road ahead
a victim of the Fates I am
My doom, a given fact
Won't you give me all your attention,
the attention I deserve
I demand your sympathy,
my words of sorrow will be heard
Won't you give me all your affection
and I'll give nothing in return
Enter my world and hear out, these tales of tragedy
Give me some validation of my sad reality
I'll talk and you will listen, that's how it's meant to be
Enter my world and share this life of misery
