The Unchosen One - Vertical Horizon

God why you want to play with me

Can’t you see I’m tumbling down

And like your favorite toy

Boy I’m tired of being thrown around

You lead me through this life of complication and delusion

So you drop it in my lap and slap me back towards confusion

When it’s so hard to decide whether to live or to die in this destiny

Tell me what would you say if at the end of the day it was just you and me

Smile away the fears that only seem to run me around

So you open up the door then the floor came crumbling down

I’ve only one or two dreams there worth losing

But they’re unraveling, traveling down the road to ruin

And the harder I try the more I slip and I slide through this fantasy

All by myself I need your help to perservere

But the same conclusions always greet me at my door

Wouldn’t it be nice to fade away

And maybe one day you will show me what went wrong

How did I become the unchosen one

So when the rain is just around my corner

Throw some sunshine down my way

And I’ll hit you with a smile all the while my worries melt away

So won’t you show me a sign as I continue to climb up this reality

All by myself I need your help to perservere

And the same conclusions always greet me at my door

Wouldn’t it be nice to fade away

And maybe one day you will show me what went wrong

So how did I become the unchosen one
