Why Me? Lyrics
Im standing on the clifftop, watchin stormclouds grow
Its disappointment time again, Ive been up here before
The wind balloons my jacket, seabirds collide below
A pier stands on a hundred stilts, some stranded U.F.OIve stopped the car in a dead end street
Rear view mirror, nothing but empty seats
I could brace myself, smash through the concrete
Find whats behind that wall of insecurityFrom gin and Jags, to sqaulor and skag
Selena, what a drag?
Once we were, back to back
Almost there, but white was blackWhy me? Designed to compete
Always, flirtin with defeat
Why me? I knew it when we met
Hell, what else could you expect?
Why me? Hungry for affection
It ends with chaos and rejectionThrough the wall and over the cliff
I made the decision, you took quite a risk
Selena says, as she strokes my head
With luck like yours, you should be deadForget the past and melt my silver spoon
Selena, not a minute too soon
Broke the chains of negativity
At last I score a victoryWhy me? No need to compete
Nowadays, I wink at defeat
She's me, I felt it when me met
That feel, cancels all regretMe, the center of attraction
The and adds to your confusion
Im standin, on the clifftop
Waving, wavingWhy me? No need to compete
Nowadays, I wink at defeat
Shes me, I felt it when we met
That feel, cancels all regretStill me, the center of attraction
The and, adds to your confusion
Im standin, on the clifftop
Waitin for the cops
