On The Cruise

This is a story, it won't fit with most categories Sadly it's crappy, it's excretory I have no guts to my glory But that's no mystery I'll find a way to be fine with my misery My soliloquy is bittersweet, no taste of serendipity It sucks, I ain't never once got a touch of victory I was built to topple Now is the world flipped on its side or was I born horizontal? Pretty awful But the pain is gonna linger with my finger on a bottle We know hope from its absence, we don't have it We see hope in our own broken fragments You can tell there's something wrong with my rhythm but everybody dances I'm gonna lose, it's what I always do That's how it is on the cruise I'm gonna lose, and that's the simple truth That's how it is on cruise That's how it is, and we allow it I'm gonna lose and I don't doubt it It's all we know to do, it's just the truth It's hard to drown it It's poison, but it's the dish that I was served, of course I'm gonna eat it First it hurts, then we repeat it We get worse and get defeated I wasn't meant to meet the mark I was born without the bite and the bark I won't find those missing parts, those fragments I don't think I'll ever have it The component, my fate but I barely own it There's one thing that I know to be true If you hadn't noticed, I'm stupid Me and my hope is useless Found my escape, all I do is overuse it Turn the pain back into music Singing a song about how I'm stupid To think that my hope wasn't useless I found my escape just to abuse it And turn the pain back into music I'm gonna lose it I'm gonna lose, it's what I always do That's how it is on the cruise I'm gonna lose, I'll get another bruise That's how it is on the cruise On the cruise, oo On the cruise, oo Who would've guessed it? All we do is accept it Because maybe I won't feel it if I choose not to confess it I found a new thing to combine To get this thought out my mind No attention is paid to the fact that we're not fine I'll find something along the sea On the ocean breeze The world is on fire And I'll find a way to freeze What I desire is a dream Cause I'm tired And all that I want to do is go to sleep Before I lose, it's all I ever knew That's how it is on the cruise It's just the truth And you can't drown it in a sea of booze That's how it is on the cruise On the cruise, oo On the cruise, oo I'm gonna lose Gonna lose I'm gonna lose I'm gonna Gonna lose Don't be confused I'm gonna lose another Gonna lose I'm gonna lose I'm gonna lose my lover Gonna lose But it's just the truth I'm gonna lose I'm gonna lose on the cruise, oo This is all I ever knew Does it mean it's all that I can do I'll get another bruise It's not like I have anything to prove It hurts cause it's the truth So trust me when I say I'm gonna lose I'll get another bruise The smile hanging on my face is just a ruse It's just the truth Trust me when I say I'm gonna lose Why not get a second sip of booze It's what we seem to do when we're on the cruise
