  • I am so lucky

    Everybody, get in line to meet the girl who flew too high
    Who does it all just to be liked by strangers that she met online
    Did it all to be included, my self-loathing so deep-rooted
    Inner child that's unrecruited, truth is I'm not suited for it

    When I die, I won't have time to spend my money
    But I hope that you still love me

    'Cause I'm so lucky, I'm a star
    But I cry, cry, cry in my lonely heart, thinkin'
    If there's nothin' missin' in my life
    Then why (why, why?)
    Do these tears come at night?

    Why they come? Why they come?
    Why they come? Why they come?

    And why she losin' so much weight?
    I heard it's from the drugs she ate
    And I feel her, but I can't relate
    'Cause I'd never end up in that state
    A girl like that is a mother, must be tough
    A problem child, I was rough
    But what do you do with a difficult grownup?

    When I die, I won't have time to spend my money
    But I hope that you still love me (da-da-da-da, da-da-mm)

    'Cause I'm so lucky (I'm so lucky), I'm a star
    But I cry, cry, cry in my lonely heart, thinkin'
    If there's nothin' missin' in my life
    Then why do these tears come at night?

    I shaved my head four times because I wanted to
    And then I did it one more time 'cause I got sick (I am so lucky)
    And I thought I changed so much, nobody would notice it, and no one did

    And I left the doctor's office full of tears
    Became a single mom at my premiere
    And I told everybody I was fine for a whole damn year
    And that's the biggest lie of my career

    But I'm so lucky, I'm a star
    And I cry, cry, cry in my lonely heart, thinkin'
    If there's nothin' missin' in my life
    Then why do these tears come at night?
    I'm so lucky, I'm a star
    But I cry, cry, cry in my lonely heart, thinkin'
    If there's nothin' missin' in my life
    Then why do these tears come at night?

    She's so lucky, she's so lucky
    She's so lucky, she's so
    Haven't you heard? Writer/s: Alexander Kronlund, Ashley Frangipane, James Everett Lawrence, Max Martin, Michael Uzowuru, Rami Yacoub, Travon Potts
