The Lottery

[Verse 1]

It happened all in the passing of light

We won’t see it coming

I know that we’ll all lose in time

But my mind won’t stop running

[Chorus 1]

Blame it on the air that you breathe

Well I can’t see how anything’s nursed on disease

Nothing is clean in this place

Our only hope is cutting off the nose to spite the face

[Chorus 2]

Who’ll take the lottery?

Don’t look away

We’re the unlucky ones

I won’t let it tear us apart!

Who’ll take the lottery?

Don’t look away

We’re the unlucky ones

I won’t let it take you

[Verse 2]

This intrusion’s a functioning curse

Break the thumb and the whole hand will hurt

It’s not like moving backwards in time

It happened all in the passing of light

[Chorus 1]

Blame it on the air that you breathe

Well I can’t see how anything’s nursed on disease

Nothing is clean in this place

Our only hope is cutting off the nose to spite the face

[Chorus 2]

Who’ll take the lottery?

We’re the unlucky ones

I won’t let it tear us apart

Who’ll take the lottery?

Don’t look away

We’re the unlucky ones

I won’t let it take you

Who’ll take the lottery?

Don’t look away

We’re the unlucky ones

I won’t let it take you
