lyrics
In this world i cannot choose,
i was born to win but i’m living to lose.
Blinded by fashion i’ll drown in my faith
and when i can’t breathe i know it’s too late.
Worried Blues I cannot choose,
in this world I’m going to lose.
Surrounded by shallow lives,
fake smiles ignorance and lies.
Egos dictate where we turn,
a change of things is what we yearn.
Worried Blues I cannot choose,
in this world I’m going to lose.
My heart is pure my soul’s on fire,
there’s not much that i desire.
Still this world fills me with rage,
it is time to turn the page.
Worried Blues I cannot choose,
in this world I’m going to lose.
The road is never paved for you,
i learned the lesson, keep it true.
Bound to lose i see the light:
for luck and love i’ll always fight!
Worried Blues i cannot choose
in this world i’m going to lose,
worried Blues i cannot choose
in this world i’m going to lose.
i was born to win but i’m living to lose.
Blinded by fashion i’ll drown in my faith
and when i can’t breathe i know it’s too late.
Worried Blues I cannot choose,
in this world I’m going to lose.
Surrounded by shallow lives,
fake smiles ignorance and lies.
Egos dictate where we turn,
a change of things is what we yearn.
Worried Blues I cannot choose,
in this world I’m going to lose.
My heart is pure my soul’s on fire,
there’s not much that i desire.
Still this world fills me with rage,
it is time to turn the page.
Worried Blues I cannot choose,
in this world I’m going to lose.
The road is never paved for you,
i learned the lesson, keep it true.
Bound to lose i see the light:
for luck and love i’ll always fight!
Worried Blues i cannot choose
in this world i’m going to lose,
worried Blues i cannot choose
in this world i’m going to lose.
