lyrics

I'm pretty sure that I've got this all figured out.
I'm pretty sure that I've got this one all figured out.

Here it comes...

Why?!?!?

You don't know what to ask
And you don't care who's asking the questions as long as they're getting ignored.
You don't know what you've been missing,
Living off someone else's living.
You have to provide for you and yours.
I don't know what you've been told,
But they told me that over time,
You might end up a little bit scarred.
I know that I have some family, back up north
Where I'm from.
They wish me luck.
I don't wish upon any other,
Anything that I don't rather,
Desire for myself.
I try to eat,
Pretty healthy and
Keep alive, but look where it got me
Floating, falling, ending up in this fucking Hell.

Life, life...
It delivered the answer!
