The Jinx

Can you walk through fire and don't get burned? Can you do hard time and don't get turned? Could the sun out there wash your blues away? Can you wear those chains for one more day? Can you live in this world and keep the jinx away? Hate in your bones, blood on your hands Now you used to be such a righteous man It's like the more that you try, the faster you sink And it's hard to smile when you never win When you never win Shakin' the jinx If I'd say sorry would it make amends? Or would it come right back to my face again? You said that I failed to plan but did I plan to fail? Doesn't really matter anyways, because I'm cursed that way Cursed I'd say Such a long way down And I know that it always will be there to make sure That I'll fall to the ground I'm shakin' the jinx Can you walk through fire and don't get burned? Can you do hard time and don't get turned? Could you wear these chains for just one day? If I say I'm sorry would it make amends? Would you throw it back in my face again? Never failed to plan but did I plan to fail? It wouldn't even matter anyways 'Cause I'm cursed this way Such a long way down And I know you always will be there to make sure That I'll fall to the ground I'm shakin' the jinx I'm shakin' the jinx
