lyrics

Wasting away one day at a time,
Locked in this cell, but I did no crime.
Tried to get loose, but I couldn't break free.
Why can't you all just let me be?

Stuck in this job to pay all my bills,
The pay is cheap and there are no thrills.
Don't regret all the things I have done.
Why couldn't I have been the lucky one? (Lucky one)

CHORUS:
Wasting away, days turn to years.
My heart's turned black; I've cried all my tears.
Is there no help, nowhere to turn?
The candle is short, at both ends it burns.

"I do" are words I'm not ready to say.
Will she be the one that got away?
So many girls that I've left behind.
Ten years past, she's still on my mind.

I'm wasting away one day at a time.
Nothing is left, I've fried my mind.
Can't change the past, what's done is done.
Why couldn't I have been the lucky one? (Lucky one)

[CHORUS]
[Solo]

What good has all your talking done,
Trying to save me with reason?
Don't understand, can't you see?
I've reached the point of insanity!

The barrel chokes me as the hammer falls.
The reaper greets me with his beckoning call.
He's here to tell me, my time has come.
Now I'm finally the lucky one! (Lucky one)

[CHORUS]
