this is the life (feat. NXVA) - alone

Things could get so bad, I know But things could always be worse There's a blessing tucked inside of each and every curse You could be a selfish fool Though somehow not be selfish enough Your glass could be half full But you've already drank way too much This is life (this is life) This is life (this is life) Merry Christmas This is life (this is life) This is life (this is life) Oh, how humor You burst the bubble of all our hidden pain Oh, how humor You clever mother, you're keeping everybody sane Oh, how laughter You make us bastards feel some kind of joy Like a golden token We find we're not broken Like some cheap little toys This is life (this is life) This is life (this is life) Merry Christmas This is life (this is life) This is life (this is life) Merry Christmas Time's so fleeting I hope that you're reading everything in between the lines Life can have meaning if you keep dreaming All the way through the days and the nights I saw you cry a little in the middle Of a story you once told You're a thing of beauty, and we're all rooting For you not to fold This is life (this is life) This is life (this is life) Merry Christmas This is life (this is life) This is life (this is life) Merry Christmas This is life (this is life) This is life (this is life) Merry Christmas This is life (this is life) This is life (this is life) Merry Christmas

So you're heading down the road in your taxi for four And you're waiting outside Jimmy's front door But nobody's in and nobody's home 'till four So you're sitting there with nothing to do Talking about Robert Riger and his motley crew And where you're gonna go And where you're gonna sleep tonight And you're singing the songs Thinking this is the life And you wake up in the morning And your head feels twice the size Where you gonna go Where you gonna go Where you gonna sleep tonight And you're singing the songs Thinking this is the life And you wake up in the morning And your head feels twice the size Where you gonna go Where you gonna go Where you gonna sleep tonight Where you gonna sleep tonight? And you're singing the songs Thinking this is the life And you wake up in the morning And your head feels twice the size Where you gonna go Where you gonna go Where you gonna sleep tonight And you're singing the songs Thinking this is the life And you wake up in the morning And your head feels twice the size Where you gonna go Where you gonna go Where you gonna sleep tonight And you're singing the songs Thinking this is the life And you wake up in the morning And your head feels twice the size Where you gonna go Where you gonna go Where you gonna sleep tonight And you're singing the songs Thinking this is the life And you wake up in the morning And your head feels twice the size Where you gonna go Where you gonna go Where you gonna sleep tonight Where you gonna sleep tonight?

Candy talks to strangers Thinks her life's in danger No one gives a damn about her hair It's lonely down on Track Street She used to go by Jackie The cops, they'll steal your dreams, and they'll kill your prayers Take a number where the blood just barely dried Wait for something better No one behind you Watching your shadows This feeling won't go Crooked wheels keep turning Children, are you learning Acclimatized, but don't you lose the plot A history of blisters Your brothers and your sisters Somewhere in the pages we forgot Take a number Jackie Where the blood just barely dried You know I'm on your side Wait for something better No one behind you Watching your shadows You got to be stronger than the story Don't let it blind you Rivers are shallow This feeling won't go Your sky is full of dreams But you don't know how to fly I don't have a simple answer But I know that I could answer Something better This feeling won't go Wait for it Wait for it Wait for it Wait for it
