Instrumental Can't lie, I won't lie No I gotta be straight with you Daddy, daddy Taught me Daddy Daddy Can't always fight off the truth And I can't lie, No reason why I shouldn't say to you Mummy mum mum Got a little humdrum When their happy couldn't see it through Oh I Thought surviving was living Made to feel like an alien In my own skin Just a human being Myself And no-one other No pressure Got the kinda ambition No man can measure Dig down deep for buried pleasure Like buried treasure Oh yes we're down down down We're down down down And that dark is a lonely place Oh yes we're down right now, but When it comes back around Happy is gonna feel so great Good time's been A long time coming I wonder what we're doing wrong (Life goes, life goes) And we've been A long time running No matter what were running from Life goes on Life goes on and on Life goes on and on Life goes on Life goes on and on Life goes, life goes Life goes on Life goes on and on Life goes on and on Life goes on (Life goes on and on and on and on and on) Oh yes we're down down down Down down down And that dark is a lonely place Tears don't drown you They grow you Hate wasn't crushing It fuelled me to find love And hold it close Now I know, now I know That voi-, that voi-, That voice in my head Wasn't on my side And the words in your mouth Were probably right People cite the times as a way to delay you Use respect to demean and debase you Deny your gods with religion Justify taking with giving Deploy weapons to lead to peace Media-cure For imaginary disease I guess we're all big baddies Tryna make a little happy Rooftop tied up for release I in they endless storm Their kinda strange Your kinda norm Whatever you've got Like it or not Life goes on No matter what we're running from Life goes on Down down down We're down down down And that dark is a lonely place Oh yes we're down down down But when it comes back around Happy is gonna feel so great Good time's been A long time coming I wonder what we're doing wrong (Life goes, life goes) And we've been A long time running No matter what were running from Life goes on Life goes on and on Life goes on and on Life goes on Life goes on and on Life goes, life goes Life goes on Life goes on and on Life goes on and on Life goes on (Life goes on and on) (Life goes on and on) Good times been A long time coming I wonder what we're doing wrong Life goes, life goes And we've been A long time running No matter what we're running from Life goes on Hold tight For the twist and turning For the breeze and the burning For the pace It never slows Never slows Just grows and grows The road wont smooth The goalposts move And the finish line, in time Gets further away So I'm gonna cheat death Take a deep breath And push til my chambers ache Rooftop tied up for release I in they endless storm Their kinda strange Your kinda norm Whatever you've got Like it or not Life goes on and on and on and on and on Life goes on Life goes on and on Life goes, life goes Life goes on
