Vertical Horizon - The Unchosen One lyrics

God why you want to play with me
Can't you see I'm tumbling down
And like your favorite toy
Boy I'm tired of being thrown around

You lead me through this life
Of complication and delusion
So you drop it in my lap
And slap me back towards confusion
When it's so hard to decide whether to
Live or to die in this destiny
Tell me what would you say if at the end
Of the day it was just you and me

Smile away the fears that only
Seem to run me around
So you open up the door then
The floor came crumbling down
I've only one or two
Dreams there worth losing
But they're unraveling
Traveling down the road to ruin
And the harder I try the more I
Slip and I slide through this fantasy
All by myself I need your help to perservere
But the same conclusions always greet
Me at my door
Wouldn't it be nice to fade away
And maybe one day you will
Show me what went wrong
How did I become the unchosen one

So when the rain is just around my corner
Throw some sunshine down my way
And I'll hit you with a smile all
The while my worries melt away

So won't you show me a sign as
I continue to climb up this reality
All by myself I need your help to perservere
And the same conclusions always greet
Me at my door
Wouldn't it be nice to fade away
And maybe one day you will
Show me what went wrong
So how did I become the unchosen one
