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 clueThat I would lose

Oh I would lose

Between my left and right, I'd one day 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 I will lose them too

I didn't have a clue

That I would lose

Oh I would lose

Between my left and right, I′d one day 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

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
