Sadly

Sadly, it seems that my dreams are being held at bay.
Sadly, it seems that my back luck simply won’t go away.
Sadly, it seems that my issues keep on coming back each day.
Choking upon my screams, as my dreams keep getting away.
(pause)
From me. (from me)
Sadly, in perpetuity.
From me. (from me)
Sadly, in perpetuity.
From me. (from me)

Sadly, it seems that my constant efforts are all in vain.
Sadly, it seems that my tears fall like torrential rain.
Sadly, it seems that my fears have me thinking badly again.
Choking upon my screams, as my dreams go down the drain.
(pause)
Once again. (again)
Sadly, in vain.
Once again. (again)
Sadly, in vain.
Once again. (again)

Sadly, it seems that I’m not where I want to be.
Sadly, it seems that I’m not where I need to be.
Sadly, it seems that I’m not where I’m supposed to be.
Gasping for air, driving me down onto my knees.
(pause)
Once again. (again)
Sadly, in vain.
Once again. (again)
Sadly, in vain.
Once again. (again)

Sadly, it seems that bad luck indeed comes in three’s.
Sadly, it seems that my luck’s hidden behind a forest of trees.
Sadly, it seems that my luck’s sailing upon stormy seas.
Grasping at straws, as I struggle with my sad reality.
(pause)
A calamity. (calamity)
A hateful tragedy.
A calamity. (calamity)
A hateful tragedy.
A calamity. (calamity)

Hopefully, my dreams will finally return to me.
Hopefully, my dreams will finally be set free.
Hopefully, My screams will turn into complete ecstasy.
Living out my dreams, as my life turns into a fantasy.
(pause)
A fantasy. (fantasy)
Happy and free.
A fantasy. (fantasy)
Happy and free.
A fantasy. (fantasy)
