Why Me? Lyrics

Why Me? lyrics


From the Album:

* To the hilt



I'm standing on the clifftop, watchin' stormclouds grow

It's disappointment time again, I've been up here before

The wind balloons my jacket, seabirds collide below

A pier stands on a hundred stilts, some stranded U.F.O

I've stopped the car, in a dead end street

Rear view mirror, nothing but empty seats

I could brace myself, smash through the concrete

Find what's behind that wall of insecurity

From gin and jags, to sqaulor and skag

Selena, what a drag

Once we were, back to back

Almost there, but white was black

Why me?, designed to compete

Always, flirtin' with defeat

Why me?, I knew it when we met

Hell, what else could you expect

Why me?, hungry for affection

It ends, with chaos and rejection

Through the wall and over the cliff

I made the decision, you took quite a risk

Selena says, as she strokes my head

With luck like yours, you should be dead

Forget the past and melt my silver spoon

Selena, not a minute too soon

Broke the chains of negativity

At last I score a victory

Why me?, no need to compete

Nowadays, I think at defeat

She's me, I felt it when me met

That feel, cancels all regret

Me, the center of attraction

The and, adds to your confusion

I'm standin', on the clifftop

Waving, waving

Why me?, no need to compete

Nowadays, I wink at defeat

She's me, I felt it when we met

That feel, cancels all regret

Still me, the center of attraction

The and, adds to your confusion

I'm standin', on the clifftop

Waitin' for the cops
