LIFE

 

IS NEVER LIFE AT ALL 

 

LOOKING IN

 

FROM OUTSIDE THE LIES

 

THE LINES CHANGE

 

THE STORY STAYS THE SAME

 

VARIED SLIGHTLY RE ARRANGED 

 

YOU 

 

MAKE IT UP

 

AS DESTINATION SLIPS

 

 BELOW THE WAVES

 

YOU PASS THE WATERY GRAVES

 

OF THOSE THAT NEVER GOT THAT FAR

 

BUT FURTHER ONTO KNOW

 

 TO SEE US

 

SUFFER AT THEIR HANDS 

 

THE CHANGE TO MAKE US

ALL THE SAME

NO ONE TO BLAME

BUT YOURSELF

NO YOU NEVER STOOD

LOOKED ON IN INDIFFERENCE 

NEVER FOUGHT WHILE YOU COULD

TO SPITE WE ALWAYS TRY

TO STAND STILL

BUT LIFE IS ALWAYS GOING BY

YOU STOP TOO LONG YOU DIE

SO YOU'RE ALWAYS ON THE RUN

NEVER SEEM TO HAVE

THE MEANS OR TIME

NEVER DONE

ITS NO FUN

LOOK AT US

CHASING DUST

GREASING THE WHEELS

SO THEY KEEP ROLLING

NEVER GATHER RUST

AND I'LL BE DAMNED 

IF I CAN EVER SEE

MY WAY FROM HERE

TO THE END

I'D GIVE IN

BUT MY WILL

NEVER SEEMS TO BEND

 

WORKING TO GET FREE

SEEMS LIKE THEY'RE ALWAYS

ONE STEP AHEAD OF ME

CHASING ME DOWN

SPENDING MY TIME

WATCHING IT FALL

IT WON'T BE LONG AT ALL

UNTIL IT SPITS ME OUT

IN A MOMENT OF DOUBT

LET ME GO AND LOCK ME OUT

 

WASN'T IT JUST YESTERDAY

 

WHEN YOU COULDN'T FEEL THE PAIN

 

YOU STOOD THERE IN THE RAIN

 

THINGS JUST WEREN'T THE SAME

 

LIFE 

 

IS NEVER LIFE AT ALL

 

LOOKING IN FROM OUTSIDE THE LIES
