UNFORTUNATE SON
words & music by tolitz rosel


Saw you walkin’ at the fields the other day
You were smilin’, you had nothing to say
You were so quiet that day the people heard not a sound
They think you’re insane

Coz you’re talkin’ to yourself the other day
You were cryin’, I had nothing to say
But I remember the day back when you were just a child
Your heart was runnin’ wild

And they said you’re the unfortunate one
Coz they never knew the battles you’ve won
You always tried hard to be a part of the crowd
But they said you’re the unfortunate one

You were happy, a child without a care
Loved your daddy, you were mommy’s sweet bear
But no one knew that one day things really got out of hand
You went home to find no man’s land

Mom was drinking, she was crying because Dad was cheating
She can’t handle the loss
You saw your Dad’s bloody body lying dead on the floor
Mommy said she doesn’t want it anymore

And they said you’re the unfortunate one
Coz they never knew the battles you’ve won
You always tried hard to be a part of the crowd
But they said you’re the unfortunate one

As a young man you always knew what to say
told your girlfriend you’ll be married someday
She said she loved you but you found her in your bed one night
She was sleepin’ with another man

What possessed you to do the things you did
With the gun that you found in your house that night
The sparks were flying in your eyes when you shot her head
Forever changing your life

And they said you’re the unfortunate one
Coz they never knew the battles you’ve won
You always tried hard to be a part of the crowd
But they said you’re the unfortunate one

And the years went by, then we saw you again
You’ve been living your life in a valley of tears
One day you walked through the fields, we never saw you again
Your life was burned by the light

And they said you’re the unfortunate one
Coz they never knew the battles you’ve won
You always tried hard to be a part of the crowd
But they said you’re the unfortunate one

You always tried hard to be a part of the crowd
But they said you’re the unfortunate one
Coz you are always the unfortunate one
Coz they want to believe you’re the unfortunate one
Coz you’ll always be the unfortunate son
