Original lyrics

EN
I'm estranged by circumstances Beyond my control, Spent my life, oh so futile Upon my father's road. Overheard him talk to strangers He needs someone to blame, He's trying to hide, he's telling lies, But can't communicate. Chorus: I been tryin' tryin' much too hard, I don't hold the ace of spades, 'Cos I don't play cards. I'm seeking to extend my freedom, Outside of my mind Drifting on, and vaguely searching For hope in the Northern Lights. Oh this house can get you down, You don't see too many smiles about, Something's gone wrong, I was hoping to find peace at home But instead I find I'm on my own I'm getting' out - I'm on the ride out. We need hope and motivation, To justify the roles, You and me, we've long been playing Upon this stage alone.
