Why can't I catch a break
When everything's going my way
I trip and fall flat on my face
Same tragedy, different day
My luck's a rain cloud, follows me around
Soon as I'm up, pour misery down
Didn't know that I would need it
Foiled my plans, well, I'll be damned
So where do I stand, losing control
Touch and go, feeling so cheated
Why can't I catch a break
When everything's going my way
I trip and fall flat on my face
Same tragedy, different day
Why can't I catch a break
When everything's going my way
I trip and fall flat on my face
Oh, but I know, I'll be okay
Soon as it's good, soon as it's fine
I get blindsided every time
But I won't sit here defeated
Testing me, hard to breathe
Maybe it's just what I needed
Why can't I catch a break
When everything's going my way
I trip and fall flat on my face
Same tragedy, different day
Why can't I catch a break
When everything's going my way
I trip and fall flat on my face
Oh, but I know, I'll be okay
Put it in my hands, watch it slip away
Same tragedy, different day
Put it in my hands, watch it slip away
Same tragedy, different day
Put it in my hands, watch it slip away
Same tragedy, different day
Put it in my hands, watch it slip away
Same tragedy, different day
Why can't I catch a break
When everything's going my way
I trip and fall flat on my face
Same tragedy, different day
Why can't I catch a break
When everything's going my way
I take the wheel, slam on the brakes
Oh, but I know, I'll be okay, yeah
Oh, but I know, I'll be okay, yeah
