lyrics

UNFORTUNATE ONE

UNFORTUNATE ONE SPINNING OUT OF TIME
SCARED AND TEARING OUT MY MIND
WISHING FOR SOMETHING MORE THAN THIS
BUT IT’S EASIER…EASIER …TO LET GO OF THIS

I AM SHUNNED - FORLORN WITHOUT MUCH
JUST A MUTE SILHOUETTE - YEARNING TO BE TOUCHED.

ON THIS HOLLOW MORNING – I DON’T KNOW WHAT I SAW

I DIDN’T HEAR THEM COMING
MY SILENCE WOULD KEEP ME FINE
I ALWAYS THOUGHT I’D BE SAFE WITH THE ONES
WHO KNOW ME.

WE COMMUNICATE WITH OUR HANDS
WE COMMUNICATE WITH OUR EYES

UNFORTUNATE ONE - DON’T SHAKE YOUR HEAD AT ME
UNFORTUNATE ONE - IN BLACK AND WHITE YOU’LL READ ABOUT ME

I NEVER LEARNED HOW TO SCREAM
BUT LAST NIGHT I LEARNED HOW TO CRY
WITH A BRUTAL CONVERSATION WITH A
DEMENTED PHILISTINE.

IN THE PARK - UNDER MOON
IT WAS ALL OF THEM AGAINST ME AND YOU
ME AND YOU…
