Dead end de Sam Roberts

Oh what's wrong with me
said oh what's wrong with me
i know what i don't wanna be
a dead end on the family tree
and i just lost my virginity
to a girl who won't remember me at all
took her out on a shopping spree
happiness never happened for free
could it be that i imagined things
i'm just sad instead of heartbroken
she came home but she's leaving again
she's coming back but she won't say when
and i don't sing songs anymore
i don't feel young anymore
and it's hard to conceal
that these tears that i cry are for real
any more
my pop said i should be like him
my mom says i can live with them
i had to ask my little brother to lend
me change for the bus ‘til i see him again
i'm getting drunk every day of the week
my ship sunk but it had no leak
a fortune teller on bishop street
she read my hand and the future is bleak
i'm tired of sitting upon the fence
i've got no self confidence
why don't i have a circle of friends
i'm so square they don't even pretend

don't give in
you can never let them win
but i get cold
i get cold
every night, night, night,
without a prayer in my heart, heart, heart
oh what's wrong with me
said oh lord what's wrong with me
i know what i don't wanna be
a dead end on the family tree
and the train for my salvation
is departing from the station
she don't feel like conversation
so i'm talking to myself
i got nobody else
i got my bottle of booze and my stale cigarettes
down from the shelf
