lyrics

feed me discomfort
i will swallow
lead me into the darkness
and, oh, i will follow
fill me with lies
for you, i will, i’ll stay hallow
remind me of despair
but i won’t, i’ll not wallow
luck
i’m lucky
luck
somehow i’m lucky
it’s luck
donno how
luck
hold me, i’m lucky
no matter what life throws at me
i’ve caught it, collected it
no matter what you throw
i’ll catch it, represent it
oh
i suppose it’s luck
it’s luck
ah man, it’s true
i’ve been given my lumps
and when it rains
it most certainly dumps
when it rains
it most certainly dumps
chains, blades and bullets
come down
but luck could run out
luck could run out
feed me discomfort
i will swallow
and lead me into the darkness
and, oh, i will follow
follow you
hold me, i’m lucky
hold me, i’m lucky
i’ll bring luck
even when stuck
i’ll bring luck
luck
luck
luck
i’ll bring luck
oh yer outta coins
nothing left
never to trust
oh no
step back
distrust
hold back
you must
trust in me
hold fast
keep calm
let the past
move on
trust in me
hold me
take me
love me
trust me
hold me
take me
love me
trust me
feed me discomfort
i will swallow
lead me into the darkness
and, oh, i will follow
