Fortunes

(アルバム： Songs From A Sketchbook, Pt. 2 - 2019)

I don't remember when
I don't remember when I lost that feeling
Like anything could happen
So long as I kept on, kept on dreaming
But I can recall a time
When all the flashing lights felt like blessings
And now I shield my eyes
Afraid they'll bleed me dry without pity

I hear children say
I want the world to know
I want the world to know my name

Oh, the quiet nights
Drifting undisguised on a street of strangers
Wondering if by
Tomorrow morning I will be down to my last dime
Where does fortune lie
If they believe that I have no further left to climb?
Looking down below
It's rare for them to know just how lucky they are

I hear children say
I want the world to know
I want the world to know my name
I hear children say
I want the world to know
I want the world to know my name

I hear children say
I want the world to know
I want the world to know my name
I cannot help but say
I wish the world did not
I wish the world did not know my name
