paroles de chanson Lifer - Wye Oak

You worry I have given up
Have lost direction for the cause
Have traded truth for confidence
Went back on all my promises
I am not old but I've become
Afraid of things I never was
And stumbling on without a pause
Can only go so long
Did you say that I was the lifer?
Did you say that life could be better?
It seems to those who know me best
My luck is wild and in excess
I don't know why some suffer so
And others never fear to go
I won't reduce myself to air
Undo myself for your affair
I've shown you everything I am
You choose or not to understand
There is a logic to the rule
The end is kind, the mean is cruel
I have to love the life I make
Make up for all the space I take
Mistaken for an oversight
The absence of my appetite
The source of all my arrogance
I left it up to chance
I believed that I was the lifer
I believed that life could be better
I want to see you rise again
To see life in your eyes again
To feel your pulse is beating strong
To prove all of us wrong
Will you say that you are the lifer?
Do you think that life could be better?
Will you say that I am the lifer?
Do you think that life could be better?
