Oh no, I never had a fighting chance

No, I never stood no test

In my mind I was just helpless

In my heart I was a mess

Now there was never any valentine

Just some distance and some stairs

Obsession was my only comfort

Regret grabbed me by the ear

Now I'm face down in the gutter

Without any luck

And holding on to nothing

'Cause I can't get up

Somebody's trying to tell me something

I don't know what it is

Yeah, now I'm face down in the gutter

Without any luck

And holding on to lust

'Cause I can't accept love

Somebody's trying to tell me something

I don't know what it is

They say hope is a four letter word

Dedicated to the lost, the lonely

To the sour to the so-so

Gonna make their dreams come true

Well, I'd say that view is slightly skewed

Maybe I'd find a better circumstance

Filled with good fortune and some love

Maybe I'd see me by the wayside

I wonder if I'd pick me up

'Cause now I'm face down in the gutter

Without any luck

And holding on to nothing

'Cause I can't get up

Somebody's trying to tell me something

I don't know what it is

Now I'm face down in the gutter

Without any luck

And holding on to nothing

'Cause I can't get up

Somebody's trying to tell me something

I don't know what it is

Yeah, now I'm face down in the gutter

Without any luck

And holding on to lust

'Cause I can't accept love

Somebody's trying to tell me something

I don't know what it is

Maybe I should stop listening

Don't know what it is

Yeah, ooh

Face down, face down

Face down, face down

Yeah, yeah
