How could I
 Have been so blind?
 Success was meant for
 The chosen ones in life
 Not for me
 The lies to myself must end
 No reason to believe

[Chorus:]
 I knew that it was coming
 But I did not prepare
 The final rejection
 Filled with utter grief

 I could have been angry
 Like I was in the past
 But this time, I clutched
 The grip of failure's hand

 The tears that I've wept
 Were never ones of joy
 But streams of burning
 For the chosen ones
 How many times must I fail
 While they succeed?

 Take it all away
 This hurt inside
 It's killing me
 I can't even try...
 So plain to see
 The victories in life
 Are not meant for me
 Just here to die

[Repeat Chorus]
