Long Hard Life

(album: 1000 Arms - 2016)

Never mind what's wrong
You did what you did now the damage is done
You're living in your head so the days seem long
Get no peace until the sun goes down

Maybe you could run away
Find a new city, start a brand new day
No more rumours, no debts to pay
What's the use in staying here anyway

I know it's a long hard life
Trying to make your way back home
I hope some day you can rest your head
'Cuz I don't like to see you, I don't like to see you down

I wonder what you'll say
When you meet the ones that you push ed out of the way
Some things fade, but some wounds stay
It gets a little closer to you every day

I know it's a long hard life
Trying to make your way back home
I hope some day you can rest your head
'Cuz I don't like to see you, I don't like to see you down

Why can't you ever let this thing just die
If you could only hold your tongue awhile

I wonder how this ends
You lying on the floor
With your head in your hands
Everybody gone but a few close friends
Think you'll have the nerve to still pretend

I know it's a long hard life
Trying to make your way back home
I hope some day you can rest your head
'Cuz I don't like to see you, I don't like to see you down
