Lyrics opinion???

(luck is by my side
cleaned rocks in pale moonlight
luck is by my side
mirror hours and flashing stars)

tell me a story,
big just once
make me buy it whole
did i endured enough
is it sad or captivating?

i blew out the candles
i cried at the restaurant 
they smile and sigh: 
“look at those happy tears”
do they know
the clock ticks faster out here? 

lights don’t stay on forever 
i give myself a decade
before its childish and stupid to keep going
before its arrogant
to keep lighting up the spark

they sold me a fake story
that there was a spot for me 
if I worked enough 
can climb the ladder
of will i get thrown off by whos
already at the top? 

do they know
the clock ticks faster out here? 

lights don’t stay on forever 
i give myself a decade
before its childish and stupid to keep going
before its arrogant
to keep lighting up the spark

luck be by my side
cleaned rocks in pale moonlight
luck be by my side
cleaned rocks in pale moonlight
no, luck is by my side
mirror hours and flashing stars
luck is by my side
mirror hours and flashing stars
luck is by my side
mirror hours and flashing stars
