No Self Esteem
My Little Cheap Dictaphone Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

ain't go no self esteem
I've lost my sense of what's real
I don 't know what to feel
and I can't even scream

No one ever told me the truth
your pretences tricked me so I never knew
What you were looking for
There is something worth fighting for
such a long time to realize what was really happening in my mind

ain't go no self esteem
I've lost my every dream

When you lose it all
When your soul fade out.
When the dream is gone
When there's nothing more/left
Tell me how can I go on
when all I wanted is gone
when every step that I take is wrong

I lost my nerve again
I turn to you, my dear friend
you said Baby Don't worry you'll be fine
you'll get back to the days where you used to shine /
I try my best every day to pay no mind
Oneday your worries will be left behind
ain't go no self esteem
I've lost my every dream

When you lose it all
When your soul fade out.
When the dream is gone
When there's nothing more/left
Tell me how can I go on




when all I wanted is gone
when every step that I take is wrong
