Girl you're killing me
Yeah you're out there
Rather die in the streets pushing nowhere
Got a feeling that you're all alone
Burning out them pliers 'til them pliers is gone
Hell to say what you want from it anyway
Too caught up in all this bullshit, to go outside today
Momma told me not to scream 'til I lost my voice
But I had no choice so I screamed that shit anyway
Found a friend downtown thinking we was the kings
But we, had a hard time thinking about what we thought that really means
And y'all say it's Show's house, beat up, it ain't nuts, just a little scared, so don't give up, if you've had enough, it's just tough love, so toughen up now
I've got a hard time taking responsibility when all these things we do don't turn out like they seem
I know that you don't care to follow me or maybe I just take myself a bit too seriously
Hey now
I don't wanna bring you down
Everything's so cold now
I don't wanna bring you down, but that's life
That's life
That's life
That's life
That's life
I'm twice as dumb as I used to be
Those street signs don't get to me
It's red lights and that moon beam
Cause if it ain't love, then it ain't free; hey!
You say I'm stubborn and I'm never gonna learn
I just went through harder things we know I don't deserve
I know they said it's better when it's done
This train ain't crashed and it's collapsed, I still think we're having fun
Oh, we've got nowhere left to go
If you can't front yourself, don't run son and if you run son, then you're on your own, hey
I'll take it, fake it, break it, momma don't you know?
And everything that's great is gonna have to go
And gasoline will burn but it won't turn to gold
I think we're lucky or maybe I'm just growing old
I've got a hard time taking responsibility when all these things we do don't turn out like they seem
And I know that you don't care to follow me or maybe I just take myself a bit too seriously
Hey now
I don't wanna bring you down
Everything's so cold now
I don't wanna bring you down, but that's life
That's life
That's life
That's life
That's life
(Instrumental Section)
Hey now
I don't wanna bring you down
Everything's so cold now
I don't wanna bring you down, but that's life
Hey now
I don't wanna bring you down
Everything's so cold now
I don't wanna bring you down, but that's life
