As they gather to watch the rise before the fall

I can't help but sense the feeling, anticipation after all

Who could miss out on the sense of occasion

The city looms, vague in distance, unsure

Is it a friend or a foe, I hedge my bets

I take my choice, I won the lottery

Now everybody asking me, damn man, why are you so lucky?

They are surprised when I tell them no, that this ain't luck

It is clear that I am not a lucky person

But I got a soul who is truly gifted with clarity

I know not of what I did to be bestowed upon

But I got a certain lesson that I don't matter in the present moment

I am not lucky, I am grateful

I am not lucky, I am grateful, baby

The sex was greater when it didn't mean anything

You called said wait up, it hurts to watch you fade away

My God, everything we had, I watch it fall away

No, don't stop, I need you gone

No, don't stop, I need you gone

No, don't stop, I need you gone

No, don't stop, I need you gone

Don't stop, I need you gone

I need you gone
