Album: Long Way Home
Wanna be able to identify the trees in my backyard
I don't wanna have to take any college classes to do it
'Cause that's too much work
Don't believe anything is free
I don't make enough money to buy...a better me
Just tell me my pessimism is a self-fulfilling prophecy
'Cause even the critics won't take the time to criticise me
Someone's gotta do what I say so I'll take one for the team
I'll make a martyr out of me if it's the last thing I'll dream
I'll dream
Maybe king of the losers is what I'm supposed to be
I don't have time for you right now
'Cause I'm feeling sorry for me
I thought I was up-and-coming
Goin' down the drain
Maybe king of the losers, no one but me to blame
I pitched a no-hitter when I was just ten years old
Like Charlie Brown made a deal with the devil one day
Inglorion exchange for his cartoon soul
Sometimes I let the sun shine in
Sometimes even the king of the losers gets to win
I get to win
Maybe king of the losers is what I'm supposed to be
I don't have time for you right now
'Cause I'm feeling sorry for me
I thought I was up-and-coming
Goin' down the drain
Maybe king of the losers, no one but me to blame
Sometimes people call me the king of the losers
Yeah
