Fortune
Die Happy Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

here I am talking 'bout discoveries
emptyness, how silly everything can be
my words are strong
my acts are weak
the truth is different

I wanted all
now I am standing here, don't give a damn
I am lost in my past, in reality
it drones in my head ? a weird tone
it sounds like

I didn't lose
I think there must be more
I think there must be more
but I don't wanna wait
but I don't wanna
but I don't wanna wait

The fucking Fortune is not smiling upon me
Not a chance to show my capability
I'm mad, i'm mad, I'm mad

The fucking Fortune is not smiling upon me
Not a chance to show my capability
I'm mad, i'm mad, I'm mad

here I am hiding my head in sand
here I am swearing I am innocent
don't wanna crawl, don't wanna sink
all on my own

I wanted all
but it's hard to believe
I will stand on the top of the world
and smile down

who will tell me where it is at all
who will tell me how to get there
'cause I don't wanna wait
I don't wanna
I don't wanna
I don't wanna wait

The fucking Fortune is not smiling upon me
Not a chance to show my capability
I'm mad, i'm mad, I'm mad

The fucking Fortune is not smiling upon me
Not a chance to show my capability
I'm mad, i'm mad, I'm mad

I wanted all
but it's hard to believe
I will stand on the top of the world
'cause I don't wanna wait
I don't wanna wait

The fucking Fortune is not smiling upon me
Not a chance to show my capability
I'm mad, i'm mad, I'm mad

The fucking Fortune is not smiling upon me
Not a chance to show my capability
I'm mad, i'm mad, I'm mad

The fucking Fortune is not




The fucking Fortune is not
The fucking Fortune is not smiling upon me
