Baby, don't look away or you might miss it I know I'm the one who's gon' fuck up intentions But don't ever think that I'm not worth a mention, okay?

That's life That's life That's life That's life, what all people say You're riding high in April, Shot down in May But I know I'm gonna change their tune, When I'm back on top, in June That's life and as funny as it may seem Some people get their kicks, Steppin' on a dream But I don't let, let it get me down, 'Cause this fine old world, keeps spinnin' around I've been a puppet, a pauper, a pirate, A poet, a pawn and a king I've been up and down and over and out And I know one thing Each time I find myself flat on my face, I pick myself up and get back in the race That's life (that's life), I can't deny it, I thought of quitting, baby But my heart can't buy it And if I didn't think it was worth one single try, I'd jump right on a bird and then I'd fly I've been a puppet, a pauper, a pirate, A poet, a pawn and a king I've been up, down, over and out And I know one thing Each time I find myself flat on my face, I pick myself up, get back in the race That's life (that's life) I can't deny it, I thought of cuttin' out, But my heart won't buy it But if nothing shaken come July, I'm gonna roll myself up in a ball and die That's life (You can't deny it, I said that's life) That's life That's life, that's life That's life, that's life That's life, that's life That's life, that's life That's life, that's life That's life, that's life That's life, that's life

I'm beginning to hear voices and there's no one around Now I'm all used up fields are brown I went to church on Sunday and I saw her go by My love is taking such a long time to die And I'm waist deep, waist deep in the mist It's just almost like I don't exist Lord, I'm 20 miles out of town in cold irons bound Well, the wall of pride is so high and wide Well, you can't see over to the other side It's such a sad thing to see beauty decay Even sadder still to feel your heart torn away One look at you and I'm out of control Just like the universe has swallowed me whole Lord, I'm 20 miles out of town in cold irons bound Now the winds in Chicago like to tear me to shreds Reality for me got too many heads There are some kinds of things that you never can never kill There are some things that last longer than you think they will But it's you and you only that I'm thinking about But you can't see in, and it's so hard looking out Lord, I'm 20 miles out of town in cold irons bound Lord, I'm 20 miles out of town in cold irons bound Well, there's so many stones in the pathway It's so easy to be corrupted in my corner of the world Well, the road is rocky and the hillside's a mud Right over head nothing but clouds of blood I found my world in you But your love hasn proved untrue Lord, I'm 20 miles out of town in cold irons bound Yeah, I'm 20 miles out of town in cold irons bound Now the fat's in the fire and the water's in the tank And the whiskey's in the jar, and the money's in the bank I tried to tell her of eternity in my mind Lord, I need to feel some to tell her kind I'm glad I'm on my, that I'm on my bended knee You got no idea what you did to me Lord, I'm 20 miles out of town in cold irons bound 20 miles out of town in cold irons bound

Hiding in the barroom where I keep my wounded pride Talking to a stranger, digging down I'm open wide All my hopes are shattered, broken glasses on the floor Another lost soul sitting here, needing something more Broken dreams and barstools that's the story of my life I pony up for another round as the truth cuts like a knife Whisky's still my best friend, with the pain I can't deny Walking here and wounded as the bottle's running dry Jukebox telling stories with a soundtrack of despair Drowning out my sorrows, in a sea of smoky air Look around but I can't see a face I know tonight I'm searching for salvation underneath the neon light Broken dreams and barstools that's the story of my life I pony up for another round as the truth cuts like a knife Whisky's still my best friend, with the pain I can't deny Walking here and wounded as the bottle's running dry

I listened to what you said You sound so proud You got nothing to say and You're saying it way to loud Walking around with your head in the clouds And your nose right up your ass You're on a one way street to nowhere With no go to pass You can't blind the blinded You can't make a deaf man hear The world will keep on spinning For a thousand years You can't blind the blinded You can't make a deaf man hear The world will keep on spinning For a thousand years They told you what you wanted to hear For a good long time Believing your own self made press Is the end of the line Walking around with your head in the clouds And your nose right up your ass You're on a one way street to nowhere With no go to pass You can't blind the blinded You can't make a deaf man hear The world will keep on spinning For a thousand years You can't blind the blinded You can't make a deaf man hear The world will keep on spinning For a thousand years You can't blind the blinded You can't make a deaf man hear The world will keep on spinning For a thousand years You can't blind the blinded You can't make a deaf man hear The world will keep on spinning For a thousand years

3am and vodka An empty glass a broken heart Nothing's gonna stop you You won't be back and I can't start To build a life without you Or tell you that I'm done Or try to hide the mess that I've become There ain't no getting through with missing you Just one more empty bottle 3am and vodka 4am and whisky An old tv a cigarette She ain't gonna miss me I deserve what I don't get To build a life a beside you After all the things I've done You should see the mess that I've become I'm wrong so I don't blame you Cause trusting me is risky 4am and whisky I've got too much time on my hands Drinking staring at the clock on the wall again 5am it's over Passing out, on the floor Wishing I was sober Nothing left anymore To live a life without you Means I'm already done If you could see the mess that I've become There aint no happy endings There aint no four leaf clovers 5am it's over There aint no happy endings There aint no four leaf clover 5am it's over
