My Anthem
It's ten AM again
I'm supposed to be at work by nine o clock
Set ten alarms but can't wake up
I'm thinking ten is not enough
Three missed calls, knocking at my door
You think by now they'd give it up
Goodbye hopes, goodbye dreams
And everything you thought I was
Too young to retire
I'm too old to think about another future
Now I'm fired, too tired
My best before was long ago
And now I'm way passed my expired
Welcome to my tragedy
I'm everything you never wanted
Completely, misfiring in all directions
This is my anthem
I'd take advice if I knew I could be much better than I am
But let's face facts I'm off the tracks
I'm in a car towards a dam
Threw in the towel, out of control
And now I'm spiraling towards the wall
I gave my all
Welcome to my downfall and I am
Too young to retire
I'm too old to think about another future
Now I'm fired, too tired
My best before was long ago
And now I'm way passed my expired
Welcome to my tragedy
I'm everything you never wanted
Completely, misfiring in all directions
This is my anthem
Let's Go
Welcome to my tragedy
I'm everything, I'm everything
Everything you never wanted
I'm sorry mum, I've given up
I'm sorry dad, It's all too much
I'll never be anything, won't make you proud
No one that you can brag about
I won't stand out in a crowd
Just leave me lying on the ground
And I don't want your sympathy
Cuz this will be the end of me
And when I'm gone just carry on
You'll wish that I was never born
Welcome to my tragedy
I'm everything you never wanted
Completely, misfiring in all directions
This is my anthem
Welcome to my tragedy
I'm everything you never wanted
Completely, misfiring in all directions
This is my anthem
I'm supposed to be at work by nine o clock
Set ten alarms but can't wake up
I'm thinking ten is not enough
Three missed calls, knocking at my door
You think by now they'd give it up
Goodbye hopes, goodbye dreams
And everything you thought I was
Too young to retire
I'm too old to think about another future
Now I'm fired, too tired
My best before was long ago
And now I'm way passed my expired
Welcome to my tragedy
I'm everything you never wanted
Completely, misfiring in all directions
This is my anthem
I'd take advice if I knew I could be much better than I am
But let's face facts I'm off the tracks
I'm in a car towards a dam
Threw in the towel, out of control
And now I'm spiraling towards the wall
I gave my all
Welcome to my downfall and I am
Too young to retire
I'm too old to think about another future
Now I'm fired, too tired
My best before was long ago
And now I'm way passed my expired
Welcome to my tragedy
I'm everything you never wanted
Completely, misfiring in all directions
This is my anthem
Let's Go
Welcome to my tragedy
I'm everything, I'm everything
Everything you never wanted
I'm sorry mum, I've given up
I'm sorry dad, It's all too much
I'll never be anything, won't make you proud
No one that you can brag about
I won't stand out in a crowd
Just leave me lying on the ground
And I don't want your sympathy
Cuz this will be the end of me
And when I'm gone just carry on
You'll wish that I was never born
Welcome to my tragedy
I'm everything you never wanted
Completely, misfiring in all directions
This is my anthem
Welcome to my tragedy
I'm everything you never wanted
Completely, misfiring in all directions
This is my anthem
