Save The Children Lyrics - Good Riddance

Not the one to live or die alone 

Or keep a chain around the telephone 

If there's a fortune at my fingers it'll be a crime 

Struck down on the dirty floor 

Ten locks on the cellar door 

I haven't slept for weeks and I'm doing fine 

In a better world I'd save the children overseas 

In another life I'd play a meaner brand of god 

Such good intentions never standing in the fore 

And I swear it's me never letting go 

You can't fail if you've never tried 

Crouched down from the view outside 

Foot steps in time with a ticking heart 

So tired of the endless days 

Payback for my selfish ways 

Feels like I've lost before I even start
