A SERIES OF UNFORUNATE EVENTS lyrics
by Ryan Oakes
[Verse 1]
f*cked up, think that I'm on the last straw
Drunk text, I'll regret after last call
I need some space, wishing that I could blast off
'Cause nowadays any buzz doesn't last long
I'm down for the count
Always counting me out
Wishing that I could bounce
Right back, but the amount
Of hate, it made me drown
I'm in need of a trial
While they were chasing clout
My head was in the clouds
Trynna find some f*cking peace of mind
In this sh*tty paradigm
With an overfull, basic design
And it's really no surprise
(That I thought when I was rich, maybe I'd be my happiest)
(I made a quarter-million and I couldn't buy happiness)
[Chorus]
I used to think that life was out to get me
I hated everything, over and over again
Thought the world wanted to forget me
I couldn't count up all of the time that I spent
Feeling sorry or playing the victim
Wasting every day to wallow around in my dread
But I guess it can get addictive
(A series of unfortunate events)
[Verse 2]
Maybe I was someone that was sh*tty in a former life
And karma came around, full circle, I was mortified
A gaining alcoholic, maybe that sh*t could be borderline
But I don't need a therapist to tell me that there's more to life
I just need somebody that can give a little comfort
Say that I'm so f*cking bright when it were me they gettin sunburnt
Not somebody out the woodwork when I've put in all the lumber
And this sh*t is working out and my career is getting buffer (f*ck that)
People switching up and shedding they snakeskin (f*ck that)
You fix the puzzle and you'll see the world shapeshift (f*ck that)
And now they're crawling back when they see the facelift
I'm better off without 'em and it's time that they face it, ugh
[Chorus]
I used to think that life was out to get me
I hated everything, over and over again
Thought the world wanted to forget me
I couldn't count up all of the time that I spent
Feeling sorry or playing the victim
Wasting every day to wallow around in my dread
But I guess it can get addictive
(A series of unfortunate events)
[Bridge]
All the tears I've shed
(All the tears I've shed)
All the times my breath
(All the times my breath)
Lost all its strength
I came back stronger instead
(Stronger instead)
[Chorus]
I used to think that life was out to get me
I hated everything, over and over again
Thought the world wanted to forget me
I couldn't count up all of the time that I spent
Feeling sorry or playing the victim
Wasting every day to wallow around in my dread
But I guess it can get addictive
(A series of unfortunate events)
