Em A D G

When all you've ever wanted in the world was someone who will smile at you

You'd think you wouldn't have to worry, that there'd be a gracious plenty

But I'm afraid that you'd be wrong, that they're quite the rarity

Which is why I am so happy to've found you

What's the probability then, of finding me another

Hundreds and millions to one I'd bet if I were a betting man

But instead I'm just a sweating man, trying to tip the odds

Into my favor, I've tried to rig the game, I've got aces up my sleeves

But there's no ace there in the hole, I'm prone to biting vitriol

When no one's looking I can get quite cross and often curse my luck

It's even worse when you had worlds upon your string but gave them up to gambling

I'd ask you not to judge but go ahead as I'm my biggest critic

Gods don't smile upon me anymore, since I've denounced them all

I'd go to hell if I believed that such a place was punishment enough

And all of this melodrama, fit for someone less deserving

All of this deprecating, self-castrating monologue is penetrating

Every orifice of my life and every nook and cranny's

Packed to the gills with wasted energy and perfectly good screaming and yelling

All for smiles and all for you and all because I came unglued

Please come around again and smile for me it's all that I will ever need
