[English]
Not a winner, not a loser, neither rich nor poorI am just a dreamer chasing something more
Oh, I'm on my way 'til I find what I'm searching for
Only thing I know is that I'm so unsure
I think I'm jaded, I let life get to my head
I'll stop complaining, I'll overthink it instead
This game is draining, so tell me, when does it end, oh, end?
Hot than cold is getting old and nothing left is fun
High to low, it's yes than no, I don't know what I want
Not a winner, not a loser, neither rich nor poor
I am just a dreamer chasing something more
Oh, I'm on my way 'til I find what I'm searching for
Only thing I know is that I'm so unsure
Not doing good, but not really doing that bad
No, I'm not happy, but I'm not really that sad
And if I'm honest, yeah, I'll admit I'm a mess, I'm a mess
Hot than cold is getting old and nothing left is fun
High to low, it's yes than no, I don't know what I want
Not a winner not a loser, neither rich nor poor
I am just a dreamer chasing something more
Oh, I'm on my way 'til I find what I'm searching for
Only thing I know is that I'm so unsure
So unsure, whoa (ooh-whoa, ooh-whoa)
Whoa
