This fever on my mind, I'm burning down inside
My luck may never change, or so it seems that way
I know in seven years, this curse will disappear
Where has my ladder gone? I feel like I've been robbed
[Chorus]
In taking everything from me now
I'm making over what I hoped to be, I know
This is my only folder left with all these words
You've taken everything from me now
You take my license plates, you've taken everything
The place where I belong, you take all my songs
You've taken what I wanted, the few things that I kept
I turned around to help someone, and then you helped yourself
[Chorus]
So take away the skin, you scratch until you win
And in this lottery, what is the prize for me?
I'd give you anything, but I can't match this happiness
What's right or wrong, where do I belong?
[Chorus]
Where has my ladder gone? you take all my songs
Where do I belong?
In taking everything from me
My luck may never change, or so it seems that way
I know in seven years, this curse will disappear
Where has my ladder gone? I feel like I've been robbed
[Chorus]
In taking everything from me now
I'm making over what I hoped to be, I know
This is my only folder left with all these words
You've taken everything from me now
You take my license plates, you've taken everything
The place where I belong, you take all my songs
You've taken what I wanted, the few things that I kept
I turned around to help someone, and then you helped yourself
[Chorus]
So take away the skin, you scratch until you win
And in this lottery, what is the prize for me?
I'd give you anything, but I can't match this happiness
What's right or wrong, where do I belong?
[Chorus]
Where has my ladder gone? you take all my songs
Where do I belong?
In taking everything from me
