When I Look at the World Lucinda Williams

I've been out of luck
I've been talked about
I've been locked up
I've been shut out
I've had some bad dreams
I've been feeling regret
I've made a mess of things
And been a total wreck
I've been disrespected
And taken for a ride
I've been rejected
And had my patience tried

[Chorus]
But then I look at the world
In all its glory
I look at the world
And it's a different story
Each time I look at the world

I've been used and out of work
Been abused
I've been lied to
I've been left behind
I've been misunderstood
I've been out of my mind
And not feeling good
I've been lost
I've been turned away
I've paid the cost
It's been hell to pay
