Life's What's Killing Me

(album: Elemental - 1998)

La, la, la, la, life
Whoa, oh, oh
La, la, la, la, life
La, la, la, la, life
Whoa, oh, oh
La, la, la, la, life

Ooh, sweet, sweet, sweet, sweet, sweet
It's so bittersweet
I cry, I cry, I cry
The secrets I keep
Red, red, red, red, red
All the headlines are blue
Are they true?
There is lies, lies, lies, lies, lies
Down from who?

It's a parody
TV's controlling me
I'm in pain, I'm in pain
I feel fake, you see

Yeah
'Cause it's a-life, it's a-life, it's a-life that's killing me
(La, la, la, la, life, whoa, oh, oh)
(La, la, la, la, life)
Yeah, it's a-life, it's a-life, it's a-life that's killing me
(La, la, la, la, life, whoa, oh, oh)
(La, la, la, la, life)

Run, run, run, run, run
On the spot, I can't hide
I'm not going anywhere yet
Come, come, come, come, come
To my senses in time

You know I burn, burn, burn, burn, burn
A candle for hope
I can't cope at all
Fire, fire, fire, fire
It goes up in smoke

There is irony
To my destiny
Won't you suck and see?
What's real, it seems fake to me

Yeah
'Cause it's a-life, it's a-life, it's a-life that's killing me
(La, la, la, la, life, whoa, oh, oh)
(La, la, la, la, life)
Yeah, it's a-life, it's a-life, it's a-life in front of me
(La, la, la, la, life, whoa, oh, oh)
(La, la, la, la, life)
Yeah

Ooh, whatcha got?
Yeah, whatcha got?
Ooh, give it to me anyway
Give it to me anyway
Take it or leave it

To my destiny
I would say one thing
Yeah, one thing
Give it to me straight
Give it to me anyway

'Cause it's a-life, it's a-life, it's a-life that's killing me
(La, la, la, la, life, whoa, oh, oh)
(La, la, la, la, life)
Oh, it's a-life, it's a-life, it's a-life that's killing me
(La, la, la, la, life, whoa, oh, oh)
(La, la, la, la, life)
Oh, yes it is, yeah
It's a-life, it's a-life, it's a-life that's killing me
Give it to me straight now
It's a-life, it's a-life, it's a-life that's killing me
(La, la, la, la, life, whoa, oh, oh)
(La, la, la, la, life)

Oh, the way I see it
(La, la, la, la, life, whoa, oh, oh)
The way I want it
(La, la, la, la, life)
The way I picture it
The way I take it
Give it to me anyway
Give it to me anyway
I'll take what you got
I'll take what you got
Give it to me anyway
Give it to me anyway
(La, la, la, la, life, whoa, oh, oh)
Whoo, I'll take what you got
(La, la, la, la, life, whoa, oh, oh)
