EN
Blinding vision in my mind's eye I dream a perfect world where nobody dies Where tragedy and calamity don't plague me No hurricanes devastate my skies All I touch turns to dust Know me at your own risk But don't get too close What am I? (I breed disaster) Who am I? So recognize that you're in danger The jonah in me will snatch You life away stay away Bequeathed this trait down through untold lifetimes A chaperone that's smothered me from birth No family, no confidantes, no love to speak of All have fallen prey to this wretched curse My time spent in cold isolation This warning obscures no deception Can you tell me What am I? I breed disaster Who am I? So recognize that you're in danger The jonah in me will snatch your life away Incurring wrath at my mixed emotions Disconsolate at living out this lie I yearn to lead a life of inconsequence But reality makes me kiss this life goodbye
