lyrics

Fado Song

just barely hanging on
to a dying dream
i'm so quick in writing off
what i've seen
now I awake
only to fall asleep again
day after day
with little hope of change
completely turning off everything
because nothing at all
is what it seems
now I awake
only to fall asleep again
day after day
with little hope of change
I've been my own worst enemy
and now there is no revenge
quite as sweet
as my own self-defeat
and I'll have the last laugh at myself
Well, isn't it funny how we remember things selectively
differently, subjectively
while each day seems to feel the need to add insult to injury
well, isn't it a pity how we trade our today
for the hope that tomorrow will be worth more
