His journey would begin with every dream already torn And no one celebrated on the day that he was born --He's just another loser. Just another loser-- The heroes now are aging.The foolish think they're smart But no one pays attention on the Loser's day to start Nobody sees him crying as he sits alone in pain Ignoring that there is no sun to dry his eyes of rain --He's just another loser.Just another loser-- The falling learn to fly.The blind man sees his face But no one ever shows up on the Loser's day to race Knowing clearly in his mind the things he’ll never get He's running towards a dead end as he drowns in his own sweat --He's just another loser.Just another loser-- The deaf man hears him calling.The cripple learns to walk But still nobody listens on the Loser's day to talk. Another cruel reality he learned so long ago There's nothing he can offer to the friends he'll never know --He's just another loser.Just another loser-- The weak have found new power.The stars escape the night But no one comes to help out on the Loser's day to fight. He walks around in circles just to get where he has been Waiting for the next day when he’ll do it all again. --He's just another loser.Just another loser-- The silent man is singing.The world finds romance. But no one hears the music on the Loser's day to dance. His heart is always empty, just a cold and constant bruise Is there anything worth winning when there’s nothing left to lose? --He's just another loser.Just another loser-- The weary finally wake up.The stranger's say goodbye But no one feels like crying on the Loser's day to die. Already been forgotten without ever being known No one saw this light of God that faithfully had shown. --He's just another loser.Losing pain and sorrow-- The angels are rejoicing.The gates have closed out sin And all of heaven celebrates the Loser's day to win. |
