lyrics

Good luck
Bad decisions, bad decisions
Good luck
Bad decisions, put the phone down babe
Good luck

Put the phone down babe
Good luck
Put the phone down babe

I'm still alive
But I'm distracted effortlessly
I'm blessed with luck my friend
Four leaves of squandered green

It's a wonder how I've managed to stay alive this long
A series of left turns, plans gone wrong

It has been my privilege to waste it
I've gotta fuck it up so I don't get complacent
I just go out and leave my honor displaced
I don't care, I don't want to escape my fate

To the brink of my recklessness
I'm rescued by luck alone
To the brink of my hopelessness
Rescued by luck alone
At least I feel no guilt
When my decisions wilt
Your will forces me to survive
I'm lucky to be alive

Designed to ruin my own life

You'll admire me, until you won't anymore
I serve but don't protect, I will leave you bereft
You'll desire me, until you don't cause I'm more
Than you deserve evened out with neglect

Distracted and damned by cursed decisions
(Bad decisions, bad decisions)
I made without a shred of regret
(Bad decisions, put the phone down babe)
When will Hermes comes to collect me
(Bad decisions, bad decisions)
When will my luck surrender to debt
(Bad decisions, put the phone down babe)

To the brink of my recklessness
I'm rescued by luck alone
To the brink of my hopelessness
Rescued by luck alone
At least I feel no guilt
When my decisions wilt
Your will forces me to survive
I'm lucky to be alive

During the great solar eclipse
I'm rescued by luck alone
At the bottom of the abyss
Rescued by luck alone
At least I feel no guilt
When my decisions wilt
Your will forces me to survive
I'm lucky to be alive

Last week I almost died at MD 185
Cus I feel asleep at Rock Creek curve the car still in drive
Today the truck missed me flying down US 33
Next week I might not be so lucky
