Nobody Can Win

Well, I set myself up big time this time

With the notion that you try your best

And everyone wins



But nothing ever goes that smoothly

And it won't end like a movie

Where the good guy always wins



Until you figure out a way you can live

Without stories without happy ends

Everyone I know is trying to get by

Fighting all the half-true lies

Nobody can win



The fill you up with expectation, innovations

Predictions, that can't possibly fly

Cinderella's waiting tables, and the princess never did wake up

That's how it begins



Until you figure out a way that you can live

Without stories with happy ends

Everyone I know is trying to get by, fighting all the half-true lies

Nobody can win, nobody can win, nobody can win
