Pity For the Self

All the time, I keep wondering why

Why my troubles always multiply

Not that I often feel the need to cry

But it always ends up to another lullaby

And all the problems come up my way

And they all appear on the same day

And they change my mood from bright to gray

Sometimes they're so frightful, they force me to pray

I wanna break the chains

Forget those awful pains

Clean away persistent stains

Forget this dreadful rain

Rinse it out of my brain

Hope steaming through my veins

Hope steaming through my veins

Hope steaming through my veins

And when the black cloud closes

It just stopped before the overdoses

And everything is coming up roses

And another bright day exposes

It always contains that sneaky snake

Like small tear stains on a slumbering ache

Like a domain with a hidden lake

Driving me insane, making it even more opaque

I wanna break the chains

Forget those awful pains

Clean away persistent stains

Forget this dreadful rain

Rinse it out of my brain

Hope steaming through my veins

Hope steaming through my veins

Hope steaming through my veins

I wanna break the chains

Forget those awful pains

Clean away persistent stains

Forget this dreadful rain

Rinse it out of my brain

Hope steaming through my veins

Hope steaming through my veins

Hope steaming through my veins

I wanna break the chains

Forget those awful pains

Clean away persistent stains

Forget this dreadful rain

Rinse it out of my brain

Hope steaming through my veins

Hope steaming through my veins

Hope steaming through my veins
