On the back of a string of rough luck 
Get a look at me now 
Get a look at me now 
Did you notice I already gave up 
Could you say it somehow 
Could you say it somehow 
I give what I can't take 
Like an unmanned army 
So if my back should break 
Just pretend you never met me 
If I'm happy there's a good chance 
I'm lying through my teeth 
'Cause without you it's doubtful 
And it would take a miracle I know 
To set this straight 
And give back the hours that I stole 
'Cause without you it's doubtful 
You couldn't wait for me to turn it around 
Wasted half of your life such a very long time 
It seems I'm only good at letting you down 
By the look in your eyes by the look in your eyes 
I give what I can't take 
Like an unmanned army 
So if my back should break 
Just pretend you never met me 
If I'm happy there's a good chance 
I'm lying through my teeth 
'Cause without you it's doubtful 
And it would take a miracle I know 
To set this straight 
And give back the hours that I stole 
'Cause without you it's doubtful 
If I'm happy there's a good chance 
I'm lying through my teeth 
'Cause without you it's doubtful 
And it would take a miracle I know 
To set this straight 
And give back the hours that I stole 
'Cause without you it's doubtful
