lyrics

I’m a second choice
I’m the worst defect
I used to bow my head to obtain respect
I’m a broken leg
I’m a sleeping soul
I used to close my fist to maintain control”

I’ve always bet on the wrong horse
And there’s no need to be honoured
I will take my bag, my clothes and my car keys
(I’ve always bet on the wrong horse
I’ve always bet on my second chance)

I’m awake in the morning light to see your face again
An empty space where I shouldn’t stay
Please pray for me and my old damned fate

This lack of noise is lack of love
This lack of love is lack of life
