Verse 1:
It’s unwelcome when it comes
You suck it in, black lung
What was started is done
It puts the pain where the fun was
Even innocence doesn’t work, I’m a smoking gun
I’m not a saint, but the game was even the losers won
Pre-Chorus:
Another plank in the fence and a stone in the wall
Another rise and a fall, Oh, the rise and the fall
Chorus:
I try to stay in optimistic lands
But nothing could be worse than this
It’s a hug from God and a Devil’s kiss but…
None of us gets a long time…
None of us gets a long time here
None of us gets a long time
Verse 2:
It’s a battle in the mud
Doesn’t matter what you bring
All the best intentions, the hands still dirty
All the denying only hurts ‘cause the end will come
Another rise and a fall, Oh, the rise and the fall
Chorus:
I try to stay in optimistic lands
But nothing could be worse than this
It’s a hug from God and a Devil’s kiss but…
None of us gets a long time…
None of us gets a long time here
None of us gets a long time
Outro:
None of us gets a long time
