Thirteen Lyrics
Bad luck wind been blowing at my back
I was born to bring trouble to wherever I'm at
Got the number thirteen tattooed on my neck
When the ink starts to itch, then the black will turn to red
I was born in the soul of misery
Never had me a name
They just gave me the number, when I was young
Got a long line of heartache, I carry it well
The list of lives I've broken reach from here to hell
Bad luck wind been blowing at my back
I pray you don't look at me, I pray I don't look back
I was born in the soul of misery
Never had me a name
They just gave me the number when I was young
I was born in the soul of misery
Never had me a name(Repeat again)
They just gave me the number when I was young
They just gave me the number when I was young
I was born to bring trouble to wherever I'm at
When the ink starts to itch, then the black will turn to red
Never had me a name
They just gave me the number, when I was young
Bad luck wind been blowing at my back
I pray you don't look at me, I pray I don't look back
Never had me a name
They just gave me the number when I was young
Never had me a name(Repeat again)
They just gave me the number when I was young

Fun fact. Bothe singers are gods
God of light, Gold of darkness
God of light, Gold of darkness
Fun fact about this song: It was written by Glenn Danzig, the lead singer for Danzig, Samhain, and The Misfits.

But Bothe singers are gods, too, mind.
This song has its equal yet to meet. There are plenty of songs about one's misery, self-doubts and anxiety but none of them just plainly states that oneself is just fucked by nature. There is no asking of what one had done wrong or whether one deserved this, just the realisation that to be a total failure.
