False Dawn

So, it’s four in The morning And I’m mourning All the versions Of my person I could have been. From humble beginnings to humble ends. Turns out I don’t amount to anything. There’s a prophecy of me that’s been seen, but I just don’t believe it. Now, I’m coming To grips with All my failings All the chances I’m inhaling And wasting From humble beginnings to humble ends. Yeah, I’m going nowhere – from whence I came. There’s a prophecy of me that’s been seen, but I just don’t believe it. Save your faith - I’ll let you down again. I’m failing you, and I’m failing myself. ‘Coz I’m a false dawn lying through my teeth on the horizon. There’s nothing left to see. Save your faith – I'll let you down again. Yeah, I know that All my hope is Just a hoaxing Every well that I wish in Is failure provoking From humble beginnings to humble ends Baby, I’m a loser. Don’t mean a thing. Prophecies of me have been seen, That I just don’t believe in. If I’m willing to be lucky someday I hope that providence is luminous enough To show me the way.
