I woke up on early evening and I knew I was alone
|
Did the sun come up or did it rain again, I¡¯ll never know
|
I felt the acid in my stomach rise above my throat as I dialled
|
|
There was a message from my mother
|
From about 7a.m. said I¡¯ve forgotten what you sound like
|
And I¡¯m wonderin¡¯ how you¡¯ve been
|
I cried myself to asleep back on the floor
|
Unconscious in denial
|
|
Life is just a little part of what the world will do
|
To get it¡¯s point across it beats you ¡®til you¡¯re black & blue
|
And decides just when you¡¯re in or when you¡¯re out
|
¡®Cause when you¡¯re through you¡¯re through
|
|
There¡¯s a cafe around the corner from a home I call a house
|
I sit and play sudoku ¡®til I figure some shit out
|
I drink the day¡¯s first coffee and I smoke the last cigarette of my life
|
|
And I¡¯m wondering out of all the crazy places that I¡¯ve been
|
Would it ever be as good as sittin¡¯ here just with a friend?
|
Where it's always understood it might be time, to switch the coffee to the wine
|
|
Life is just a little part of what the world will do
|
To get it¡¯s point across it beats you ¡®til you¡¯re black & blue
|
And decides just when you¡¯re in or when you¡¯re out
|
¡®Cause when you¡¯re through you¡¯re through
|
|
Yeah, Yeah.
|
Whoaaaah, Ohhhh.
|
Whoaaaaahhhhhh
|
|
Ohhhh, Ohhh, Ohhh.
|
Oh.
|
|
Janis sings to me just like she¡¯s sitting by my side
|
And I wonder just how many times she sat like me and cried
|
I¡¯ve made it past the age of twenty-seven so there¡¯s no use in dyin¡¯
|
|
And my friends have asked the question:
|
¡°Baby, will you be okay?¡±
|
I wanna tell them yes ¡®cause I know that¡¯s what I should say
|
But I¡¯ve got no crystal ball and I can¡¯t bring myself to lie and why should I?
|
|
Hey, yeahhhh - I think that¡¦..
|
Life is just a little part of what this world will do
|
It¡¯s bring us to the brink and beats the shit right outta you
|
And decides just when you¡¯re in or when you¡¯re out
|
¡®Cause when you¡¯re through you¡¯re through
|
|
Yeah, Yeah, Yeah
|
Life is just a little part of what the world will do
|
It¡¯s brings us to the brink and beats the sh1t right outta you
|
And decides just when you¡¯re in or when you¡¯re out
|
When you¡¯re through you¡¯re through
|
|
Ayyye, Oh.
|
I guess I¡¯m through
|
Mmmmm
|
When you¡¯re through, you¡¯re through.
