No matter what they say
When I walk away
Only slightly scathed
You can call me lucky

When the scabs on my heart
Finally heal and chip off
And consumption’s cough
No longer bleeds
You can call me lucky

When the darkness
That others seeded
Never succeeded
And I manage to still be
A kind hearted me
You can call me lucky

Cause I live and I write
Still got a job
I am still alive
I say with a smile
I am a lucky *******
