My life is a constant entrapment of tunnels Which tangle and wind and beguile And regardless of where I may tumble or funnel I wonder what’s really worthwhile
Sometimes it can seem like a merciless dream And I’m falling with nothing to hold Sometimes I get flustered and beaten and blistered Abandoned outside in the cold
CHORUS But I’m gonna win, I’m gonna try I’ll never lose, I’ll never die You’ve seen me before, you’ll see me again I’ll never give up, I’ll never give in Til I’m bloody and bruised Til I’ve broken my bones Til I won’t be abused Til I’m laughing alone
It’s hard to be charming and smart and disarming It’s hard to pretend you’re the best It’s hard to fulfill everyone’s expectations It’s hard to keep up with the rest
CHORUS
How do you feel? You’ve been concealing your worries from the world But you can reveal them to me I wouldn’t know I go on even though
I’ll be bloody and bruised I’ll be breaking my bones I’ll be paying my dues I’ll be laughing alone
