Life's A Lot

(album: The Big Happy - 2021)

Four, three, two, one
One, two, one, two, three, four

Me and you were down by the lake over in Silver
Your gold hair blowing in the wind
And then a stranger came up to me and said, "Brother
Things aren't going but spreading thing"
'Cause life's a lot

We were having dinner on the East Side and laughing
But things stopped like Truman and people were staring
The way they came up to me all the sudden
You whispered in my ear
That life's a lot
Life's a lot

And maybe death can fix everything
And maybe death can bring anyone back, yeah

I was with my grandma there in the hospital reconciling
With demons that I couldn't see, the news
She came up to me and say, "Boy, pull the plug"
I said watch how you talk to me
'Cause life's a lot
And precious and short and valuable

So sometimes I sit at home depressed and anxious, they say
Everything happens for a reason, well I'm waiting
'Cause right now these pills and bottles look like
An escape to me, it's all too much
'Cause life's a lot
And precious and short and valuable
'Cause life's a lot

But death won't fix anything
And death can't bring anyone back, yeah

Life's a lot
