Intro: Look at me, I'm the one who got away, the one who could've shone I tried to do my best, but I guess your best don't last for long Look at me, standing with my tattered pride of toothless little lions We try to make a difference, do something no-one else had tried But if you see me walking and you're wondering why Well it's just the business of life If you're not getting lucky, you're just getting by Look at me, is it written on my face, the luxuries I've known? I a foreign presence, some place that used to be my home? So if you see me walking, just a regular guy Well it's just the business of life If you're not getting lucky, you're just getting by And in that weightlessness that comes with good luck The one thing you don't expect is feeling the drop Look at me, I'm the one who got away, and then came crawling back I try to do my best, but I guess I never had the knack So if you see me walking and you're wondering why Well it's just the business of life If you're not getting lucky, if you're not getting lucky You're just getting by, you're just getting by Just getting by Just getting by.
