Life Goes On

(album: SWIRL - 2021)

I tried to be an astronaut
So I could give the sun to you, yeah
I thought I'd be the President
So I could paint the White House blue

Yeah, so I took my shot, guess I missed, what a drag
So instead, I waste my time feeling sad

But la-la-la-la, life goes on and I'm trying to
Figure out where I went wrong
I'm la-la-la-la, losing touch and I'm finding out
Growing up really sucks

I thought I'd be a movie star
But that was in 2002
I thought I'd be a socialite
I guess I lack the attitude

So I fill the empty spaces with some whiskey and some cheap tattoos
I'm running out of dreams and now I've got none to lose

But la-la-la-la, life goes on and I'm trying to
Figure out where I went wrong
I'm la-la-la-la, losing touch and I'm finding out
Growing up really sucks

And I, I, I'm tired of these growing pains
And I, I, don't ever wanna act my age
And why, ah does every day just feel the same
But la-la-la-la, life goes on

La-la-la-la, life goes on and I'm trying to
Figure out where I went wrong
I'm la-la-la-la, losing touch and I'm finding out
Growing up really sucks

Growing up really sucks
